    THE ATHENA PATHWAY PROGRAMME

    Athena Pathway was launched in August 2022 by Sir Ben Ainslie and Hannah Mills OBE, two of the world’s most successful Olympic sailors, with the aim of fast-tracking development in high performance sailing and bringing diversity into the sport and the UK marine industry more broadly.

    Kai Hockley joined Emirates GBR in January 2024 as an intern. In July 2024, Kai was selected as development sailor for Emirates GBR and the AC37 British America’s Cup team. Since then, he has travelled around the world with Emirates GBR as part of the Shore Team, gaining F50 training time and debuting as a Grinder at the Emirates Dubai Sail Grand Prix.
