The opening ceremony of the 2015 Laser Radial Women’s World Championships takes place tonight at 7pm local time (GMT +4). You can watch the event live using Periscope, available to download at Periscope or through your app store.
Throughout the event, we will be posting photos, videos, interviews and race results online on the Oman Sail official social media pages –Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook as well as the official website. Event organisers, Oman Sail, are looking forward to putting on a great show. Director of Marketing and Events, Salma Al Hashmi, said, “Following the success of the RS:X World Windsurfing Championships here in Mussanah last month, we are looking forward to delivering another top class event. Some of the world’s best female sailors are here in Oman, many for the first time, and this is shaping up to be a great competition.”
“The conditions are perfect, almost identical to what we expect in Rio next year, and the event provides an invaluable opportunity for Omanis to gain experience managing a high profile event. Our bid team was Omani, our events and management team are predominantly Omani and most on-site staff are Omani, so we’re able to offer a true sense of Oman in every aspect.”
The 2015 Laser Radial Women’s World Championships are supported by Oman Air, the Sultanate of Oman’s national carrier, as official Airline Partner. For more information, please visit Oman Air
