Athena Pathway advances to Semi-Finals of UniCredit Youth America’s Cup
Athena Pathway, the British team supported by Cobham-Ultra competing in the UniCredit Youth America’s Cup, has secured a spot in the Semi-Finals after a competitive battle on the race course in Barcelona.
The team qualified for the Semis after finishing in the top three of the six America’s Cup teams, behind Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli (ITA) and NYYC American Magic (USA). This achievement puts them one step closer to retaining the Youth America’s Cup, which Great Britain won in 2017.

In the Semi-Finals, Athena Pathway will compete against Italy, USA, Sweden, Spain, and Australia. The Semi-Finals will begin on Tuesday, 24 September at 13:00 BST (14:00 CEST).
