Welcome to Sailing | |
|
|
CSSC (Civil Service Sports Council) Sports and Leisure through the Civil Service Sailing Association (CSSA) arrange an annual Inter Departmental Offshore Regatta (IDOR) in which HASSRA sponsors and enters one or more chartered yachts to compete on an individual boat basis against other yachts from other government departments and CSSA recognised clubs.

HASSRA normally sponsors two boats to enter the weeks racing and whilst there is a core crew for safety reasons, the remaining members tend to have little or no experience. Talking to them on the Sunday evening when we are waiting to board the boats you can catch an edge of nervousness and apprehension, probably thinking what on earth made them take up an offer for a place on the boat. Chat to them at the end of the week and you see a completely different person. Confident, amazed at their different experiences and often in awe of the knowledge and leadership shown by their skippers. They leave as different people and with memories that will last a life time. The IDOR is our Olympics. Some are winners but everyone is a participant and I am sure they have that feeling of pride with what they have achieved. As Civil Servants, we are so lucky to have organisations like the Civil Service Sports Council (CSSC), the Civil Service Sailing Association (CSSA) and in DWP HASSRA to provide us with those “moments” in life. | ||
