Czech Lakers!

no heroes, just legends! #NHJL

Born on the lakes with a perfect sense for shifts!

The Czech Republic, renowned globally for its Pilsner beer, unwavering ice hockey passion, and Olympic prowess in javelin throw, may not have the luxury of a sea coast, but it proudly boasts a rich history in sailing, nurturing a community of top-level sailors. Our story begins with pivotal moments in our sailing heritage: the year 1893 marked the beginning of the Český Yacht Klub, one of Central Europe’s oldest sailing clubs, and in 2004, at the Athens Olympics, Lenka Šmídová clinched a silver medal in the Europe class.

Our team’s captain and manager have a singular mission: to harness the raw talent of our young Czech sailors and fuse it with the wisdom and experience of our seasoned athletes, forging an extraordinary team prepared for any challenges that lie ahead on our path to success. Representing our homeland is not just an opportunity; it’s an honour that ignites our spirit to achieve greatness in the upcoming SSL Gold Cup.

Though we lack a seaside backdrop, we possess an indomitable spirit, a passion for sailing that runs deep in our veins. Our aspirations transcend boundaries, and we are determined to compete on par with the world’s finest sailors. In the realm of fair sailing, aboard cutting-edge carbon yachts, we are ready to go toe-to-toe with the best, knowing that our journey will inspire a new generation of talented sailors. We aim to not only succeed but also popularize this incredible sport in our land and beyond. “Let the winds carry our dreams, and may our story be a beacon of hope for all those who yearn to set sail toward their own aspirations in the world of sailing.”
