| Entries are now open for the Spring 2nds Regatta, a l’il opportunity for your 2nd VIIIs to experience some side-by-side racing – something they might not otherwise get to try. While it’s intended for 2nd VIIIs, if your 1st crew is positioned below the highest ranked 2nd VIII in Summer Eights (check here http://www.ourcs.org.uk/files/file/racing/e09/satend.pdf) you’re welcome to enter them too; in case there’s more entries than we can accommodate for, priority for places is given to crews higher up the chart. The event will take place from 1100 on Thursday of 8th Week (11th March), with racing from the Green Bank to the Cox’s stone. Given the novelty of the regatta, we’re erring on the side of caution as regards expected interest, limiting spaces to 16 VIIIs, and 8 IV+s each for men and women. Categories currently open for entries –via the OURCs entry system– are: Men’s and Women’s VIIIs, entry fee £27* Men’s and Women’s IV+s, entry fee £11 Entries will close at 3pm on Sunday of 8th week (7th March), giving enough time for hangovers to clear up before putting in any drunkenly promised last minute entries. The IV+ categories are open, but will have to be filled to go ahead. *If less than 6 crews enter an IV+ event, we’ll scrap the category, but if the IV+ categories run, the entry fee for VIIIs will fall too. On Sunday we’ll announce who the places have been allocated to, and the exact cost of entries. Prizes for the winning crews of each category, naturally. I think that’s all the information needed at this point, but if you have any questions do ask, either by e-mailing me at edward.jacobs@balliol.ox.ac.uk, or by posting below- which will save me writing the same response over and over in case I’ve missed something obvious...
