Irish Schools Regatta

[arl3s4]

What schools are planning on travelling to castlewellan for the schools regatta/ castlewellan regatta this year?
Does it not seem a bit silly the lack of overage categories and J15 categories? Surely the point of a SCHOOLS regatta is that anyone who goes to a school should be able to compete. Just having Senior 2- and Senior 1x is a bit of a cop out in my opinion.Also, just a J15 4x+. thoughts? I would think that offering more events would actually attract more schools to the event than it attracted last year?

where is the list of events for schools regatta??

I’m pretty sure the categories offered at the Schools regatta have been chosen in close consultation with the rowing head’s of each participant school, therefore if there is a demand for a certain category the event would accommodate it

However there are obvious safety and timetable issues which also have to be considered as it being run in conjunction with the University Championships
