We're in the process of preparing the draw. With two tide turns to allow for, our timings are quite tight, but we're hoping to get most of the entries in (where there's appropriate opposition).

We're still watching that PLA flag, hoping it goes green before Saturday, and noting the PLA's guidance that J15s and younger shouldn't go afloat on a yellow flag. British Rowing Furnivall SC Sons of the Thames Fulham Reach BC

Race schedule and instructions now on our website. Please take note that our software has given us some very tight gaps between adjacent rounds; we're not going to change it now, but will work around on the day. ...and the river is back to green flag!

We're keeping an eye on various weather forecasts. It's looking like Saturday will be fairly cool (high of 11-13C), but mostly dry (possibly some light rain) and relatively low winds. Please make sure you come prepared for the conditions.

We expect competitors' equipment to comply with RowSafe...

Our task for today: final prep and a check on when the tides actually turn vs forecast (more water coming down from upriver means more time on the ebb) Your task for today: check that your entries match what you're planning to race. BROE closes for subs at 8:30 tomorrow.
