NJISA Awards

Given out annually, the NJISA Awards are presented to high school sailors in the NJISA League of the MASSA District. These awards are given to sailors who demonstrate a high level of skill, passion, and promotion of high school sailing in the state of New Jersey. 

SELECTION PANEL

A panel of coaches will determine the recipients. The panel may change year to year, but it will always be comprised of an odd number of sailing coaches who are very involved in high school sailing in the NJISA League. The panel will be approved by the NJISA Director.
