Entry Limits
The Regatta Committee reserves the right to limit entries to particular events or the regatta as a whole. Where possible priority will be given to a crew/competitors first entry and then second (double) entries will be accepted as space allows.
Double Entries
Will be accepted only as allowed below. The regatta is often over-subscribed and these rules exist to limit entries and to minimise the risk of entries being rejected arbitrarily due to excessive numbers. Wherever possible we will accommodate reasonable boat and cox sharing requests.
- Open & Women's Open
- Any two events in Elite, Championship, Senior and Intermediate 2 only one of these events should be a long course event (held in the morning).
- Novice/Intermediate 3
- There is no scope for Novice & Intermediate 3 crews to double enter.
- Junior 13, 14 & 15
- There is no scope for crew double entering in these age groups.
- Junior 16 & 18
- Any two of AM (8.30 – 12.30 approx), PM (13.30 – 18.00 approx) & Open/Women's Senior.
An individual competitor/crew can only be entered in events in one Category as defined above per day.
Clubs must submit a SUMMARY FORM showing double entries of crews, coxes and boats. In addition please provide a mobile phone number where a senior club official can be contacted over the regatta weekend if the need arises.
Masters Handicap Events
Will be organised in accordance with the guidance provided in the 2010 Masters Handicap Events Operating Notes.
Junior Events
A minimum of three entries from two different clubs are required for an event to be held. If insufficient entries are received, the entries will be placed in the next age group for the class of boat unless an alternative is clearly stated. The Entries Secretary will endeavour to contact Club Secretaries and Teachers i/c of Rowing to resolve any difficulties – please ensure that OARA contact/phone number records are correct.
