As I move into my second year at the club, I have been promoted to the Sailing Secretary, a Duty Team Leader, responsible for upsetting all sorts of people, giving them jobs they don't want to do and receiving my Officer of the Day Training. Now we are getting ready for the first race of the season and ensuring that the Club has enough competent members to run the races.
When I think of an Officer of the Day I am reminded of the MASH episode when Dr Hawkeye Piece has made Officer of the Day for one Episode and the Chaos that ensued. Perhaps for this reason each year the Upper Thames Sailing Club does some OOD training to ensure that the day runs smoothly and there is someone in overall charge.

In this example Short Home, Medium Home rounding to Port
And the number of Laps
