ICSA TEAM RACING NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

Walter C. Wood Trophy

This trophy honors the outstanding contribution made to intercollegiate sailing by Walter C. "Jack" Wood.  Jack was MIT's first sailing director and, in conjunction with the late Leonard Fowle, was a founder of college sailboat racing.  The trophy was donated by MIT graduates and friends of Jack, and is awarded to the winning team at the ICSA North American Team Racing Championship.

The first competitions for the Wood Trophy consisted of district All-Star teams that were principally made up from the colleges that had gathered for the Dinghy Championship. In 1977 a change was made so that each team in the championship was made up of individuals from only one college. All colleges in the championship qualify through district eliminations.
