Europa Cup

The Vaurien Europa Cup was created to have a competition of sailors all over Europe even when they do not directly meet on the water.

It is a kind of „Europa Ranking“ of our class.

How do I get Europa Cup points ?

The overall points are the sum of a team’s four best regattas.

So, to have chance of winning the Cup, a team has to participate in at least two regattas abroad.

Each nation is entitled to have two Europa Cup regattas. Races counting for the Europa Cup are listed on the right and can also be found in the Calendar on this website. 

The Vaurien World Championship does not count for the ranking of the Europa Cup.

Every team participating in an Europa Cup regatta is automatically ranked in the Europa Cup ranking.

The points are calculated as follows:

points = 1000 x ("number of participants" - "place in that event") / "number of participants"

if „place“ = „Number of participants“ –> points = 1
