    "body": "<p><strong>Van 11 tot 14 juli 2026 </strong>komen The Tall Ships Races weer naar Antwerpen. De majestueuze zeilschepen van over de hele wereld maken zich op om koers te zetten naar Antwerpen voor de achtste editie van deze beroemde zeilwedstrijd. De internationale maritieme race brengt elke 4 jaar niet alleen indrukwekkende schepen naar de Scheldekaaien, maar ook <strong>duizenden bemanningsleden en bezoekers</strong> die samen zorgen voor een unieke, bruisende sfeer in de stad. </p><p>Tijdens The Tall Ships Races varen jongeren mee langs verschillende steden. Aan boord van de zeilschepen nemen de trainees verschillende taken op en leren ze samenwerken. Dit jaar bereiden <strong>132 Antwerpse trainees</strong>, verspreid over een tiental schepen, zich voor op het leven aan boord van een groot zeilschip. </p><p>Tijdens een <strong>bootcamp op zaterdag 9 mei</strong> leren ze in verschillende workshops alles over het reilen en zeilen op een schip zoals hen dat deze zomer te wachten staat. Daarnaast zien de jongeren elkaar nog een keer allemaal samen en wordt <strong>Team Antwerp</strong> gevormd samen met de LO&#039;s. Liason Officers zijn vrijwilligers die worden toegewezen aan een specifiek schip om de bemanning en de trainees te ondersteunen tijdens hun verblijf.</p><p><strong>De pers is van harte welkom op de voorstelling van Team Antwerp </strong><u><strong>op zaterdag 9 mei om 15 uur</strong></u><strong>, in the Antwerp Maritime Academy, Noordkasteel-Oost 6, 2030 Antwerpen, in aanwezigheid van de trainees.</strong></p><h4 id=\"programma\" >Programma</h4>\n<div\n    class=\"table-container\"\n    style=\"\"\n>\n    <table\n        class=\"table table-bordered\"\n    >\n
