The Skandia Team GBR website has gone under the knife and has now emerged with new a fresh look and additional features.

Now full of new information, the website is the one-stop-shop for everything related to the British team in training for the Beijing Olympic Games and you can log on to catch up on the latest news from the team as they travel around the world competing at all the top level Olympic Class Regattas.

Jam packed with new features written about and by our sailors, the website will keep you up to date on all the Skandia Team GBR gossip. 

This month, 49er sailor Simon Hiscocks spills the beans on his top trapezing tips and we welcome Harvey Hillary to the team in the role of elite coach.  In weeks to come, Skandia Team GBR’s Sports Psychologist, Dr. Ben Chell, opens the door to the world of psychology and gives us some tips on how we can boost our ‘mental toughness.’

One of our lucky readers will stay warm and dry through out the winter sailing season as we put a set of Skandia Team GBR Waterproofs and a couple of fleeces, provided by Gul, up for grabs in our latest competition.

Also available is the new mini-site for the RYA Sail for Gold Regatta where you can follow Skandia Team GBR’s performance at the UK-based event through photographs, event diaries, results and interviews.

Finally, to show your support for the team you can sign up to be a member of the Supporters Club and receive a newsletter straight into your inbox.  What more could you ask for?
