Stronger together for USA athletes
Published on October 13th, 2025
America One Racing (A1R) has become a prominent program for American athletes with Olympic ambitions, and an alliance with the St. Francis Sailing Foundation (StFSF) seeks to bolster their efforts.
StFSF, which has a long history of providing financial grants to aspiring Olympians, has launched a strategic partnership to provide both substantial financial and strategic assistance for AIR’s world-class athlete development program.
The partnership for StFSF represents a new chapter that will leverage A1R’s comprehensive athlete support, including coaching, sports science, teamwork, financial aid, and leadership development.
“We are honored to have St. Francis Sailing Foundation join the A1R Team,” noted Paul Cayard, Director of A1R. “We appreciate their commitment to support our dedicated athletes as they pursue success at the highest levels of our sport.”
