EVERYTHING ILCA

WHAT IS AN ILCA

Ilca Logo

The International Laser Class Association is a self-administered, self-funded international organization which provides coordination, organization and communication for the class worldwide. ILCA is like a worldwide sailing club specifically for owners of ILCA sailboats and people interested in sailing them.

ILCA’s objects, which are set out in its Constitution, are:

  • to promote and develop ILCA racing in all countries, under uniform rules
  • to provide a medium of exchange of information among ILCA sailors throughout the world and enhance the enjoyment of ILCA sailboats
  • to encourage and foster the enjoyment of the sporting and recreational aspects of sailing.

On the local and national level, these objects are put into practice by hundreds of volunteers around the world who work all year around in sailing clubs, offices and even sailing federations to organize class events spanning from club regattas to training camps to national championships.

On the international level, a dedicated ILCA office co-ordinates the international racing calendar, organizes ILCA world championships, liaises with national and international authorities, publishes the annual ILCA handbook, manages the class website and social media, and works together with the builders to protect the one-design principle.
