🥇🥇Congratulations to SMSC’s Golden Girl Claire Daley for winning GOLD at the Canada Games in the ILCA Women’s fleet! 🥇🥇

08/13/2025

SMSC's Claire Daly is part of Team Nova Scotia at the Jeux du Canada Games happening now in NFLD. Claire is sailing in the women's ILCA 6 and after 1 day of racing, she is sitting in 4th place.

Unfortunately racing was postponed on Tuesday and Wednesday due to wildfires in the area. Hopefully the fire is brought under control and everyone can once again focus on the athletes!

Claire recently represented Canada at the ILCA Youth Worlds in LA, where she came 2nd in the silver fleet (and won 2 races!). Claire is a dedicated sailor and example of how far you can go with hard work and determination. We're so proud of you Claire!
