GUIDELINES FOR ELECTIONS TO THE OXFORD & CAMBRIDGE SAILING SOCIETY
Current Membership Rules
Election of all candidates for membership shall be by the committee. Membership shall be confined to present or past members or supporters of the Oxford University Yacht Club and Cambridge University Cruising Club.
Current Broad Guidelines
The committee feels that sailing talent should be the main criteria for election and that includes crewing as well as helming talent. In addition it is felt that exceptions to this criteria should be permitted in the cases of individuals who had made a major contribution to the sport (either at University or since then) and who would make worthwhile members of the Society.
Detailed Guidelines
The Intent of the below guidelines is that a committed and engaged sailor on either Oxford or Cambridge team should easily make a case for being eligible to join.
