Home News Six US Sailing Race Officials Appointed to Officiating Team at 2024 Olympic Games
Six of US Sailing’s most experienced race officials are serving on the officiating team at the 2024 Olympic Games, working on-site at the sailing venue in Marseille.
“This is an unusually large number from any country and it demonstrates our success in developing high-level officials,” says Matt Hill, US Sailing Race Administration Director.
US Sailing, the national governing body for the sport of sailing, certifies judges, measurers, race officers, and umpires at the club, regional and national levels. Officials who want to work on the world stage seek an additional international certification from World Sailing.
“The pathway for international certification is long and demanding, and being chosen to officiate at the Games truly identifies the best of the best,” says Hill.
This year’s officiating team in Marseille includes six Americans from all over the country, including four women, aligning with World Sailing’s Steering the Course global initiative to bring more women coaches, athletes, and officials into the forefront of the sport.
The US officials are:
The Role of Digital Officials
Digital officials watch the races in real time using tracking, broadcast feeds, drone footage, and whatever else is available and aid the course race officers on the water as well as the PRO and DPRO ashore. For example, digital officials may notice a mark drifting or wind shift and be able to alert officials on the water. Additionally, an official on the water may ask a digital official for help identifying which competitor is down at the weather mark, which boat has elected to retire from a marathon race, or whether the angle to the offset mark looks right. Another aspect of the job is gathering both video footage and data to support race officers in a hearing. This can include clips from tracking or broadcast feeds that show start and finish lines, offset angles, mark rounding, and more.
“It is an honor not only to be selected to serve as a member of the race management team for Paris 28, but also to be part of the development of digital officiating,” says Ashburn. “Technology is one of the fastest growing aspects of our sport, with so many opportunities for future applications both for athletes and officials. It is exciting to be on the frontline of these developments at such a high-level event.”
The Role of On-the-Water Race Officers
For Johnson and Lynch as on-the-water race officers, they will be closely communicating with digital officials, including Ashburn and
Hawkins, to best support the race committee. This will be John’s second journey to the Olympics, so he has an anticipation of what to expect, despite the Tokyo 2020 Games being consumed by COVID-19 protocols.
“For the Games in Marseille, I am looking forward to again being present in the moment and taking in the camaraderie among the officials,” shared Johnson. “Each of the appointed race officials from countries around the world make for remarkable company. This is an amazing opportunity to be up close to the game we all are so passionate about and be a part of a world class officiating team.”
The Role of International Measurers
Kowalyshyn is serving as an international measurer, utilizing her expert knowledge of class rules, certification measurement, and high-level inspection methods to lend to the process of equipment control, ensuring that all competitors are compliant.
“I was very gratified to be recognized for all the years of hard work as an International Measurer, and as a World Sailing volunteer leading the committee work for Olympic events and equipment,” says Kowalyshyn. “I am an International Technical Official for the
iQFOiL class and supporting other classes during the Games as well, because of my broad measurement background. It has been a busy two years leading up to the Games, but I am excited for the real work to begin and ensure a level playing field for all sailors competing.
There are 59 International Technical Officials from 33 nations spread across the roles of Technical Delegates, Race Management Team, International Jury, Technical Committee, Event Disciplinary Investigating Officer, and Chief Medical Officer. The announcement also includes a 50-50 gender split in the key Technical Delegate and Chief/Vice-Chief positions.

FILE – SAG-AFTRA captains Iris Liu, left, and Miki Yamashita, center, and SAG-AFTRA chief negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland lead a cheer for striking actors outside Paramount Pictures studio on Nov. 3, 2023, in Los Angeles. While negotiators with SAG-AFTRA made gains in bargaining over wages and job safety in their video game contract, leaders say talks stalled over protections over the use of AI. Chris Pizzello/Associated Press file
LOS ANGELES — Hollywood’s video game performers voted to go on strike Thursday, throwing part of the entertainment industry into another work stoppage after talks for a new contract with major game studios broke down over artificial intelligence protections.
The strike – the second for video game voice actors and motion capture performers under the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists – will begin at 12:01 a.m. Friday. The move comes after nearly two years of negotiations with gaming giants, including divisions of Activision, Warner Bros. and Walt Disney Co., over a new interactive media agreement.
SAG-AFTRA negotiators say gains have been made over wages and job safety in the video game contract, but that the studios will not make a deal over the regulation of generative AI. Without guardrails, game companies could train AI to replicate an actor’s voice, or create a digital replica of their likeness without consent or fair compensation, the union said.
Fran Drescher, the union’s president, said in a prepared statement that members would not approve a contract that would allow companies to “abuse AI.”
“Enough is enough. When these companies get serious about offering an agreement our members can live – and work – with, we will be here, ready to negotiate,” Drescher said.
A representative for the studios did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment. Advertisement
The global video game industry generates well over 100 billion dollars in profit annually, according to game market forecaster Newzoo . The people who design and bring those games to life are the driving force behind that success, SAG-AFTRA said.
“Eighteen months of negotiations have shown us that our employers are not interested in fair, reasonable AI protections, but rather flagrant exploitation,” said Interactive Media Agreement Negotiating Committee Chair Sarah Elmaleh.
Last month, union negotiators told The Associated Press that the game studios refused to “provide an equal level of protection from the dangers of AI for all our members” — specifically, movement performers.
Members voted overwhelmingly last year to give leadership the authority to strike. Concerns about how movie studios will use AI helped fuel last year’s film and television strikes by the union, which lasted four months.
The last interactive contract, which expired in November 2022, did not provide protections around AI but secured a bonus compensation structure for voice actors and performance capture artists after an 11-month strike that began in October 2016. That work stoppage marked the first major labor action from SAG-AFTRA following the merger of Hollywood’s two largest actors unions in 2012.
The video game agreement covers more than 2,500 “off-camera (voiceover) performers, on-camera (motion capture, stunt) performers, stunt coordinators, singers, dancers, puppeteers, and background performers,” according to the union.
Amid the tense interactive negotiations, SAG-AFTRA created a separate contract in February that covered indie and lower-budget video game projects. The tiered-budget independent interactive media agreement contains some of the protections on AI that video game industry titans have rejected.
