Reading University Boat Club 

New Information

    This page contains all the new information posted on this web-site.  After a short period of time it will be achieved in the main part of the web-site.

New Henley Rules

    The rules for the Henley Royal Regatta events have had a major overhaul.  There is now a three tier system.  The Visitors (originally University coxless fours) is now open to Ladies standard crews and there is also a new quads event at this level.  The entry rules for the Wyfold, Britannia, and Thames (the club events) have been tightened.  However, universities can now enter the Wyfold (club coxless fours).  The Temple (for University eights) has been reduced to 32 crews.

The full rule changes can be found at the Henely Royal Regatta website.

Cool Websites

This page is along the lines of the link above.  It is a collection of what I feel are the best sites on the internet.  It includes some rowing ones, but there are many non-rowing sites as well.
