Coaches please note: 

When the bow markers for the TT are picked up, you will be asked to check a list to ensure athletes in time trial events are entered in the correct 'Current Special Category' (this is the Event number listed in the Regatta Package)

There will be cases for some athletes where it will be blank and needs to be filled in.  Note: Any updates/corrections should be entered in the 'New or Updated Special Category'.

This information is critical in event of any updates/changes as this is how the weigh in sheets for Lightweight events are created and how medals are awarded by event.

Thank you.

2015 Regatta Package  (Revised package includes new Standard Registration Deadline)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NEW for 2015     DA$H for CA$H

Sign up at the Registration Desk starting Friday. Don't miss out - it's going to be a lot of fun!

Mixed 8+, lineups must include at least 4 rowers who are Masters or Juniors and 4 Women (not including coxswains)
500m, straight final
Limit: 7 boats.
When: Saturday, last race (after the W 8+)
Entry fee: $10 (cash only) per person, payable at the Registration Desk during the regatta (Friday -Sunday).  Note:  Please bring full payment with entry - no exceptions
The entry fees will go into a pot, with the winner getting half the pot:  (7 entries x 9 people/boat x$10/person= $630...half of that = $315 to the winning 8+. That buys a lot of ice cream!)

(Special recognition to any boat with more than 4 active coaches in it - counting coxswains!)

Masters
Masters Men are encouraged to enter the Open/AD 4+ (event 2) on Friday.
This event is being run over 1000m to give the RCA Para 4+ a race before they head to the World Championships.
UVIC will be entering a Mixed Srs 4+, but we recommend that interested Masters enter 4 men.

Open 8+:  If we get more than 3 Masters entries for the Open 8+ we will run a separate Masters 8+ over 1000m.
Composite entries are welcome!
