Every year to close the season, HSH Prince Albert II pays tribute to the Club’s sailors at the YCM Awards for the UBS trophy which recognises young competitors in the Sports Section, as well as members and owner/helmsmen who are competing at the highest level.
Prizes are awarded in two categories: the YCM Youth Awards (Optimist, ILCA and Kite categories) and the YCM Awards for society members who have best defended the Club’s flag during the regatta season.
