competitors must be in possession of a valid Racing Licence when their entry
is made. Anyone contravening the Rules will be disqualified.
2. Veteran races will be handicapped - handicaps will be applied at the
start.
3. "Mixed" crews are assumed to be an equal mix of Male & Female
rowers. Exceptions may be allowed by IRC race control on the day if the
composition is deemed to be fair, and if this is the only way to enable racing
to take place.

5. All crews MUST be in the start area 5 minutes before the start time of
their race.

pattern of the canal.
8. All coxes MUST wear lifejackets.
9. All Crews MUST obey Marshalls at all times. Failure to do so may result in
Disqualification.
10. After the finish ALL boats must paddle clear of the finish line and stay
on the water until they are called into a landing area by a Jetty Marshall.
11. IRC reserve the right to amalgamate events to facilitate racing.

accommodate a maximum of THREE entries made by Competitors, we cannot
