Schools Regatta Programme and Limits 2020

The following limits have been proposed by hosts and approved by the Schools Committee for the 2021 school regattas and the following will be applied at each event:

Aon Maadi Cup	Aon North Island Secondary School Champs	Meridian South Island Secondary School Champs
Singles & Doubles 1 crew per event per school All other events 4 crews per event per school	Single, Double/Pair, Four/Quad 2 crews per event per school Eights and Octuples 4 crews per event per school	Single, Double/Pair, Four/Quad 2 crews per event per school Eights and Octuples No Limit

After the close of entries regatta control may call for supplementary entries, which are limited late entries. But only where this will not require extra races to be completed. Schools should not rely on being able to get one of these late entries.

Also please note our recommendation for number of events - students should only be entered into 2 events with the occasional student undertaking 3 events. Should students be entered in more than the recommended 2-3 entries per student, Principals will be required to sign off the entry and could be contacted directly by the Schools Committee.

With the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic situation and the possibility of changing government regulations in NZ we would also like to recommend that schools, clubs and supporters consider their bookings and the subsequent cancellation policies or insurance of those bookings carefully. Disruption to or cancellation of these regattas could occur at any time.

Safeguarding Children

Rowing NZ have released resources to assist clubs with their Child Protection Policy and promoting safe practices with children. We recommend school rowing programmes working within rowing clubs ensure that these are being considered and adopted by clubs. More information can be found on www.rowingnz.kiwi
