THERE WILL BE NO COACHES AND COXSWAINS MEETING. 

The North Carolina Rowing Championships is open to all eligible youth, collegiate, and masters rowers. 

Youth & collegiate races will be 1,500 meters. Masters races will be 1,000 meters.

Crews must supply their own bow numbers. 

Only one entry per club is permitted in each event with the exception of the single sculls event. An additional entry may be permitted in other events if space is available after the close of entries. Email the regatta director to express interest in multiple entries. The typical solution is to add a Division II event if more than one team wishes to enter multiple entries. 

A club may only enter the Division II event if they have an entry in the corresponding youth event.
