REGATTA CANCELLED COVID-19 update: 16 March

In early March Rowing NZ sought feedback from secondary schools on their attendance at a proposed/postponed 2021 Aon North Island Secondary Schools Rowing Championships (NISS) held on 21-23 April 2021, and 2021 Meridian South Island Secondary Schools Rowing Championships (SISS) held on either 9-11 April, or 16-18 April.

We have received insufficient interest from Schools to deem each regatta viable. As a result, Rowing NZ, Karapiro Rowing and South Island have had to make the tough decision to not proceed with the proposed regattas, and the 2021 Aon NISS and Meridian SISS events are now officially cancelled.

Rowing NZ remain grateful to Karapiro Rowing and South Island Rowing for undertaking a substantial amount of work in hosting a possible regattas on alternative dates, and we thank them for their willingness and flexibility to do so. We also respect each school's individual decision on not attending and are aware of the complexities faced with existing extra-curricular activities already in place.

Covid-19

With the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic situation and the possibility of changing government regulations in NZ we would also like to recommend that schools 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. Also please ensure you stay at home and do not attend the event if you are sick or feeling unwell, and please ensure attention to personal hygiene remains paramount (wash your hands, cough or sneeze into elbow).
