Under British Rowing Rules of Racing​ and adhering to the RowSafe code
​
Course: River Thames, 3000 metres downstream from Elmbridge Canoe Club to Miskins Wharf, run over two divisions – 10:30 and 12:30.​​​​
RULES AND CLARIFICATIONS
Competitors are encouraged to race in more than one division, as offered above.
*2x are offered primarily for those doubling up. 2x from clubs with full trailers and big boats will be given priority (4 or 8).
​
In the event of oversubscription, priority will be given to eights/octos, fours and quads. The number of visiting trailers is a limiting factor.
​
Events may be split into bands containing competitors of similar ranking. This will be clearly indicated on the Start Order. Senior bands will be based on CRIMax.
​
‡To accommodate the possibility of insufficient entries in either boat class, please state on your entry whether or not you are prepared to switch to coxless if entering coxed, or to switch to coxed if coxless – or if not, if you will race for 'Time Only'.
​
You are reminded that boats must display British Rowing standard identity codes and must be licensed for the Thames.
​
MASTERS and BEGINNER EVENTS
Masters events will run in age groups, but may be combined using the conventional handicap system. Masters crews may be moved to the appropriate Senior category in the event of insufficient entries. Please state on your entry if you do not want to race Senior.
​
† The Mixed Masters event will be run as a single event across both divisions.
†† Beginner Coxed Quads: No more than 10 PRIMax in any seat (apart from the cox).
​
FEES
​
£18 per competitor (coxes free) per event in advance.
Payment by BROE before 8th January 2026 – no cheques please.
​
Entries will not be accepted if entry fees are owing – this includes waiting list entries.
​
In the event of cancellation we will return as much of the fees as we can but it is likely we will have to withhold a proportion. Unfortunately, few of our suppliers now provide penalty-free cancellations even as far as 21 days in advance.
