Events
The format will be the same as previous years with the BUCS 2000m event for seniors and 1000m event for beginners, alongside a 1000m event for adaptive rowers.
Similar to previous years, we will also be offering 500m sprints and 2000m team relays (open, womens, mixed) which will be open to all competitors, and are not part of the BUCS schedule. This is a great chance for additional races for those already competing, or an alternative for club members who do not wish to race the senior 2000m or beginner/adaptive 1000m.
*500m sprints and relays will not have seperate events for Senior, Beginner or Adaptive. Relays events offered include mens, womens and mixed
Entries
Entries can either be made through BUCS, for those looking to be included in the BUCS national rankings, or directly with the club.
