In place of the cancelled University Fours and Small Boats' Regattas, in the Easter Term of 2021 there was a combined regatta for 4s and small boats, which ran from Monday 7th to Friday 11th June. Race results are now available here.
Instead of the usual 'chasing' format, races were run side-by-side over the Pembroke Regatta course, roughly 1100m from the bottom of the long reach to Peter's Posts. Novice 1x races were run over their usual 500m course.
A one-off side-by-side Regatta held on the Long reach, to replace the cancelled 2021 May Bumps.
The June Eights Regatta ran from Monday 21st June to Thursday 24th June.
Further information is available on the June Eights' Regatta page.
In light of British Rowing's move to Phase E of their guidance on the return to rowing, CUCBC’s advice to college clubs remains the same - please do not rush into any changes, and make sure you’re working with boathouse staff and college authorities to develop plans which implement the British Rowing advice, as well as incorporating any extra measures required by your college or specific to your boathouse.
Please do not proceed with the implementation of any plans until your college authorities have been consulted and signed off on them.
