The Robert H. Hobbs Sportsmanship Award is awarded annually to the Sportsman of the Year. The trophy honors Robert Hobbs (MIT ’64), past Executive Vice President of ICSA, past President of U.S. Sailing (1992-1994), and former chair of the U.S. Sailing Olympic Committee. The Hobbs Sportsman of the Year is an incredible honor in which one’s peers recognize a sailor whose spirit and attitude is notable both on and off the water.
