    2022 FIREBALL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS Hosted by the Royal Geelong Yacht Club www.rgyc.com.au www.visitgeelongbellarine.com.au February 2022 Photo: Andrew Davies FIREBALL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS GEELONG 2022 On behalf of our Australian Fireball Sailors (IFAA) I’d like to welcome your interest about the next Fireball World Championship to be held at Royal Geelong Yacht Club (RGYC), near Melbourne, Australia. The organising team comprising RGYC and local IFAA leaders are going full steam ahead to make arrangements for an exciting and well planned regatta. They are leaving no stone unturned to have great race management, reliable end to end boat transport logistics, accommodation and transport information that provides plenty of options and a social program to cater for sailors and their family and friends. When we held the Australian Championship at RGYC in Feb 2019 we found most people could stay within walking distance of the club. There were plenty of restaurants and pubs just 1-2 blocks away from the club. The environment created a great opportunity to do some post race socialising at the club and then wander off in groups to explore and taste the variety of options available for dinner. During the regatta we experienced everything from light and tricky shifting breezes, champagne sailing at 12 -16 knots and stronger winds. The nearby coast, home to Bell’s Beach surfing and the Great Ocean Road offers a wealth of holiday options for people able to extend their stay to enjoy a longer visit to Australia in summer. We look forward to welcoming you to Geelong in 2022.
