World Sailing, the world governing of the sport, has opened the bidding process for the 2021, 2022, and 2023 editions of the Youth and the Women’s Match Racing World Championships.

Auckland, New Zealand will host both the 2020 editions of the Championships and World Sailing is now inviting Member Nation Authorities (MNAs) and Host Cities to bid to host one of the next three editions thereafter of both the Youth and Women’s Championships.
