Making Entries 2011

Wallingford Head is held over two divisions at 10.30am and 1.30pm, with different events in each division. The results are pooled together to find the overall winner.

  Division 1
10.30 am		 Division 2
1.30 pm
Eights Senior, IM2, Novice, J18, J15 Elite, IM1, IM3, J16, Mas
Coxed Fours Elite, IM1, IM3, J16, Mas Senior, IM2, Novice, J18, J15
Coxless Fours Elite, IM1, Mas Senior

 

Events are offered for both men and women.

The Wallingford Head course is not easy to steer and inexperienced crews and coxes may find it too challenging. Please take this into account before deciding which crews to enter.

All crews must be below the start before each division can start. This will lead to some crews being on the water for 2 hours per division. Please ensure your crews can cope with this in any weather conditions; day-time temperatures in December can be near freezing.

Entries are limited to a total of 260. If we are oversubscribed, preference will be given to the first 130 paid entries received in each division.

  • Events will be subject to a minimum of 4 entries when total limit is reached.
  • No sculling events or other boat classes will be offered.
  • Masters prizes on handicap based on fastest crew in each division.
  • Composite entries will only be accepted in Elite categories.

Entries open via British Rowing Online Entry (BROE) on Monday 31st October and close when the event is fully subscribed or Thursday 17th November, 1800hrs at the latest.
