    Who it suits

    • Olympic and Para campaigns building towards LA28
    • National federations planning squad selection and travel
    • Marine brands and media targeting a global championship audience

    Planning notes

    • Entry, class and schedule detail come from World Sailing's championship site — link it rather than restating it.
    • The championship splits across two venues six months apart, so treat Fortaleza and Gdynia as separate campaign periods.
    • For federations: a single championship landing page carrying squad, schedule and results links outperforms scattered social posts.
