Rules
This regatta will be governed by the 2026 USRowing Rules of Rowing. For additional details, please refer to the regatta entry packet and the official USRowing Rules of Rowing.
Affiliation
Athletes competing in any USRowing Youth National qualifier and/or the USRowing Youth National Championships must have affiliation with only one program, between January 1 and the end of the Youth National Championships of the current calendar year. The athletes affiliation is with the program in which they are registered as of the first competition during the spring season. This includes USRowing registered and non-registered regattas, but does not include indoor events. Athletes cannot compete with/for two separate programs at any point between January 1 and the end of the Youth National Championships of the current calendar year.
EXCEPTION: Athletes who are members of a junior rowing club existing as a composite of athletes with no stand-alone high school rowing program may row as a single (1x) in a regatta under the name of their school where they are not permitted to enter as “unaffiliated.” When permitted, a single (1x) competing as “unaffiliated” is not considered to be representing an organization, and therefore would remain in compliance with the affiliation requirement listed above. Unaffiliated athletes must still meet all USRowing compliance and membership requirements.
For the purposes of qualifying for the USRowing Youth National Championships in an individual event, the athlete must still represent the club (entered under the club’s name) with which the athlete began the season.
If athletes wish to compete in a team event under the name of their school with an established high school rowing program rather than as a club, USRowing organizational membership is required for that school for that purpose and the athletes must compete as this organization the entire spring season.

Volunteer Policy & Sign-Up
Volunteers are a critical component of all regattas. Our sport’s sustainability and success rely heavily on these dedicated supporters, who help ensure that our rowers, teams, coaches, spectators, and more have a safe, fair, and rewarding experience. The purpose of this policy is to provide additional volunteer support at USRowing-owned regattas to Local Organizing Committees (LOCs).
