MESSAGE TO MEMBERS - 2020 AGM & 2022 Championship Bid Deadline Postponed

IODA continues to monitor the global COVID-19 situation as it affects the Optimist Class activities over the coming months.

Currently, we do not have a confirmed date for the 2020 AGM and it is postponed until further notice.

As a result, the Executive Committee has confirmed that the deadline to submit a bid to host a 2022 IODA Championship is also postponed as the date is linked to the date of the AGM, as stated in our Championships Conditions.

Please refer to World Championship Condition 7.1 and Continental Championship Condition 8.1 for more details.

For your convenience, here is the link to the 2020 Handbook that contains the Articles and Championship Conditions, http://www.optiworld.org/uploaded_files/2020-IODA-Handbook-Final%20-%20Jan12_20.pdf_2742_en.pdf

A new deadline to submit your Bid to Host a 2022 Championship will be confirmed as soon as a date of the AGM is confirmed.

In addition, to those Members who are planning to bid for an IODA Event in 2022, the Bid Form to Host an IODA Championship has been revised and can be found at: http://www.optiworld.org/uploaded_files/Bid%20Form%20March%202020%20FINAL%20V3.pdf_2781_en.pdf.
