MASSA News

Welcome to the 2022-23 High School Sailing Season. We hope everyone had an awesome summer! Below are a few links and items to help teams get ready for the season:

www.pcisa.org - The website is being updated and will contain all the information and links for High School Sailing in the Southwest Area. Check Back for Updates often!

https://pcisa.hssailing.org/mailing-list - Everyone can sign up. Team Leaders (coaches, students & parent advisers) should sign up. Each team MUST sign up someone. Information distributed to this email list is Official! Note: Just because you are listed as an administrator in the PCISA Teams database does not mean you are automatically signed up for this email distribution list. This is a self-managed list that requires you to sign up (and/or remove yourself).

https://registration.hssailing.org/ - All teams must register online & pay annual dues before registering for events. Please read the "Instructions" carefully. Don't Forget Step 3 "Save All Changes" and Step 4 "View and Print Invoice" which is actually a link to pay online. You can see a list of Schools and Registration Status at: https://registration.hssailing.org/schools/directory-by-district/c/13/   Note: A status of "Pending" likely means that Annual Dues have not yet been paid. Allow at least 24 hours for status update after paying dues.

https://pcisa.hssailing.org/documents/2021-22-PCISA-District-Rules.pdf - All High School Sailors (students, coaches & parent/team advisers) should read these carefully! These will be updated to reflect 2022-23 Season within the next 10 days after the PCISA Board meets. No major changes are anticipated.

Techscore - ts.hssailing.org - Coaches must have a Techscore Account to manage sailor participation at events. If you are new Click the "Register Here" at the end of the first line in Announcements at ts.hssailing.org  Note: Techscore Accounts will only work for people associated with an Active (Registered & Paid) ISSA/PCISA Member School.

Lots happens during the next few weeks with numerous deadlines and administrative requirements. Waiting until the last minute is not good for anyone. Please review the website, rules, links above and if you are new seek guidance from previous team admins, coaches, or other teams near you. After you have carefully reviewed everything and sought help from locals if you still need help with something let us know. The SoCal & NorCal Mtgs. are great places to ask questions, get answers and discuss things. We will be posting other important items in the next few days so please check the website regularly.

Sail Fast and Enjoy!
