Rooster, the well-known watersports clothing and accessories manufacturer is to become the Official Clothing Partner of the International Paint Poole Regatta 2026. As a brand rooted in performance sailing and with strong links to the south coast, Rooster will bring their long-standing event partnership experience to support the regatta and its competitors with their expansive range of technical sailing clothing.

Having recently launched a range of keelboat and coastal inshore sailing apparel, designed for exactly the type of sailor competing at Poole Regatta, they make the ideal fit as clothing partner for the regatta.

Andrew Pearce, Poole Regatta President, commented, "Rooster's long-standing involvement in competitive sailing makes them a perfect fit for Poole Regatta. As they continue to innovate and support sailors moving into larger boats, the competitors of Poole Regatta make a great potential market for their high-performance clothing range and having the support of such a trusted brand will certainly bring increased gravitas to the event with easily accessible branded clothing. We're thrilled to welcome Rooster to the team and proud to have them as official clothing partners."

The 2026 International Paint Poole Regatta is shaping up to be the largest in the event's history, as it hosts the IRC European Championship alongside upwards of 14 racing classes. Yachts and crew are expected to travel from across the UK and Europe to compete, with the unrivalled backdrop of the Purbeck coastline, five racecourses and plenty of social events to make for an unmissable weekend of sailing.

Rooster will maintain a daily presence throughout the regatta, held over the late May Bank Holiday weekend in 2026, with a dedicated stand offering event support, product advice and access to merchandise. Branded Poole Regatta gear will be available to pre-order via Rooster's website in the lead-up to the event, with flexible delivery or convenient on-site collection options available to all competitors.

Flo Denford, Events and Sponsorship Manager at Rooster said, "We're really excited to partner with such a well-established and professionally run regatta. Poole Regatta continues to grow in both reputation and attendance year after year, encouraging everything from grassroots club racing to top-tier championship competition and we're proud to support an event that reflects the same passion and progression we see in our community of sailors. We can't wait to kit out the fleet in gear that performs as hard as they do."

Competitors and supporters alike are encouraged to visit www.roostersailing.com to discover the full clothing range.
