If more entries are received for any event than the prescribed number allowed for that event the Committee shall arrange Qualifying Races in accordance with the following rules:-

1. The Committee shall, in its absolute discretion, select which of the entrants shall compete in these races.
2. The races shall take place on the Friday afternoon before the Regatta and shall take the form of a timed Head Race.
3. No member of a losing crew of a Qualifying Race for any prize shall compete for that prize at the same Regatta.

The Committee shall determine the list of entrants for the Qualifying Races on Sunday the 23rd June and this list, together with the timetable and other instructions, shall be published on the Regatta's website that same evening.

It is entirely the responsibility of each crew entered in the Regatta to check this website to determine whether or not they are required to compete in the Qualifying Races. No other form of communication will be used by the Regatta in relation to these races.
