- What registration support do you provide?
- We give you pre-built registration templates, check-in workflows, and guidance on setting up online entries. You bring the riders — we help you manage the list.
- Can I get the FRL rulebook and race formats?
- Yes. Every licensed organizer gets full access to the current rulebook, class structure tables, and recommended race formats for each discipline.
- What course diagrams are available?
- We provide layout guides for windward-leeward, reaching courses, slalom, and beach sprint formats — plus guidance on setting marks based on local wind and tide.
- Do you help with race jerseys?
- We provide design templates and connect you with approved vendors. We can also help coordinate a league-wide design if you want your event to match the national series look.
- What timing and results support is there?
- The FRL app handles timing integration and results upload. We also provide backup manual timing sheets and a results verification workflow.
- What qualifies as a sanctioned event?
- Any race that runs to the FRL rulebook with certified officials and the FRL insurance bundle. One-offs, series, club championships — all eligible.
- Do I need my own insurance?
- Most venues require a primary policy you carry. FRL provides the secondary event-day coverage scoped to sanctioned racing.
- How long does approval take?
- Most applications are reviewed inside a week. Larger venues or new formats can take longer if we need a site call.
- Can I run a multi-discipline event?
- Yes. Sanction one event covering pump, eFoil, wing, kite, or downwind — class structure is up to you within the rulebook.
- What does it cost?
- A per-event sanctioning fee plus the insurance bundle. Series and clubs get bundled pricing — get in touch for a quote.
- Do you help find sponsors?
- We make introductions to league partners and provide a sponsor prospectus template. We do not guarantee funding, but we help you build a credible package.
