Sailing team finalised

Three more NSWIS sailors have been selected to the Australian team competing at the 2012 London Olympic Games later this year.

Olivia Price, Nina Curtis and Lucinda Whitty were included in the team to contest the women’s match racing event in Weymouth, a few hours south of London. Price will skipper the boat with Curtis and Whitty forming the crew as the NSWIS trio aims for a successful Olympic debut.

Curtis and Whitty won world championship gold in 2009 as part of a different Australian team, however since joining with Price the team has won world cup silver and bronze medals, as well as a top 10 finish at the 2011 world championships.

The Olympic Games kick off on July 27 2012.
