Entry period opens for 34th America’s Cup
SAN FRANCISCO, CA (Nov. 1, 2010)
Event organizers today confirmed receipt of the first entries for the 34th America’s Cup in 2013. "We're only a few hours into a five-month entry period, so to already have a total of four entries is a very positive sign,” said Iain Murray (AUS), Regatta Director for the 34th America's Cup and CEO of America's Cup Race Management (ACRM).
The 34th edition of the sport's oldest international competition has been renewed and revitalized by a move to spectacular wing-sailed catamarans, as well as a three year program of racing in venues around the world and a new emphasis on innovative television and new media programming.
“The competitors who applied for entry today join the previously declared Italian challenger Mascalzone Latino. BMW ORACLE Racing submitted its defense application today,” Murray said. “The other two teams will not be named as their applications are being verified. Throughout the five-month entry period, ACRM will announce the time and date when an entry has been accepted. Each team will release details of its entry publicly at their discretion. Additional entries are expected soon,” Murray added.
The entry process and validation procedures are set out in the America’s Cup Rules and can be found at www.americascup.com
The entry period for the 34th America’s Cup runs from Nov. 1, 2010, to Mar. 31, 2011.
