A further fleet race series of up to four races will then be completed to decide the top two teams who will proceed to the one race finals where the sailors will compete head-to-head in a match race to determine the winner of each regatta.

For the Youth America’s Cup, the final race is scheduled to be held on the October 2 with a reserve day on October 3 in between one of the official flights of America’s Cup Challenger Selection Series Finals.

The Women’s America’s Cup final race is scheduled to be sailed on the October 16 with a reserve day for October 17 in between races in the Match for the America’s Cup.
