Get To Know TeamBDA In Two New Short Films
The journeys of sailors on TeamBDA is the subject of two short films that will debut in a free public screening a week from Monday.
The all-Bermudian TeamBDA started almost two years to prepare for the Red Bull Youth America’s Cup in June. The public is invited to the free screening and Meet and Greet at Liberty Theatre on April 10 from 5:30pm to 7pm.
The event will showcase the whole team of young Bermudians, but highlights five torchbearers as they approach the event. Prepare to learn more about the team, including features on Ceci Wollman, Mustafa Ingham, Shomari Warner and Dimitri Stevens.
A fifth sailor, Emily Nagel, left the team to take a job with SoftBank Team Japan – living the Red Bull Youth America’s Cup promise of providing a pathway from the youth ranks of the sport to the elite ranks.
“The two short movies are touching, emotional and reflective of the Bermudian spirit. The public can meet the team on the night and learn insights about their training journey,” the ACBDA said.
“TeamBDA has been training full time since January and have made incredible improvements. This past week, they trained on the Great Sound with Oracle Team USA and Next Generation USA, the US team in the Red Bull Youth America’s Cup.”
Laura Cutler, Manager, TeamBDA, says: “This is a whole team effort and we are excited to showcase these inspiring young Bermudians who are representing Bermuda this summer. I encourage the entire community to get behind our sailors. They are the perfect example of Bermuda’s youth rising to the occasion and we can’t wait for you to meet them.”
After the April 10th, free public screening event, the short movies will be available online to be seen at any time.
TeamBDA was guaranteed entry to the Red Bull Youth America’s Cup regatta as Bermuda is host to the 35th America’s Cup. Bermuda can cheer on TeamBDA from the America’s Cup Village starting from June 12th in the Qualifier round. Tickets are still available here.
