Sailing Competition on September 28
Asian Games 2026: The third day of the sailing events of the games has arrived. Sailors still race in each of the races listed on the schedule while earning points for their overall race classification.
Competition Format
The format for the Asian Games sailing events will be in accordance with the internationally accepted fleet racing format that is used in large sailing competitions such as the Olympic Games.
With the installation of the “low-point system”, sailors will be awarded points based on the race they finish in: the higher a sailor is in the starting order for a race the less points he will score. There are several fleet races throughout the competition for athletes to build a cumulative score in. Will be able to drop the worst result after a certain number of races, according to official sailing rules, to help minimise the effect of a bad race.
