Regatta expectations and requirements

  • To race in any regatta, entries, boats, and assigned rowers must be discussed with and approved by Head Coach. All entries are completed by the PRC Registrar.

  • All rowers must have a PRC uniform

  • All rowers are responsible for transportation to and from regattas as well as their own accommodations.

  • Junior rowers: Junior Coaches will inform you and your parents of the races you are entered in. The PRC Junior Parent Coordinators will book accommodations and help coordinate travel carpools - but as athletes, YOU are responsible for staying on top of communication and plans for regattas.
