Malta will be represented by a team of five young sailors at the Optimist World Championship, taking place from December 5 to 15, in Mar del Plata, Argentina.

Under the expert guidance of Optimist coach Ivan Vasilev, the team has been rigorously preparing to represent Malta in this exciting international competition.

The Maltese team, consisting of Isaac Azzopardi, Liam Andrew Cutajar, Aleksandra Nagrudnaia from Birzebbugia Sailing Club, as well as Sebastian Miceli Demajo and Timothy De Cesare from Malta Young Sailors Club, have been training together for the past few months.

In a statement the Malta Sailing Federation said their participation highlights Malta’s growing presence on the global sailing stage and serves as an inspiration to aspiring sailors across our island.

“We wish the team the best of luck as they take on this incredible opportunity,” the Malta Sailing Federation said.
