SCRC - Rowing League - Rules of Racing

 

  1. 1000m races will be over the middle thousand and 500m races will begin at the 1000m mark going down the course unless weather conditions are such that a race organizer must make a change.
  2. Floating starts will be used.
  3. Start and finish will be by horn.
  4. All 1000m crews must have at least 4 (four) females rowing in the boat and a “designated coxie”. Crews must use their designated coxies at all times.  Crews for 500m races will be formed from remaining available team members.
  5. Only current registered league rowers are eligible to row in the crew or spare boat on race nights.
  6. Boats will be assigned on race nights.
  7. Enrollment will determine the team size.  It will be up to the Captain and Coach to get the members out to practices and races. All crews must be composed of team members with no substitutions allowed. (Unless there are not enough members to make up a crew). Changes are to be made ONLY by the race organizers.

POINTS AND SCORING

1.    Awards will be given according to final race finish position.

2.    If the final race of the session is “washed out”, final standings and total points will be based on the previous weeks race results and accumulated points total.

3.    The Overall Award will be given to the team attaining the highest accumulation of points over the entire session. Enrollment will determine the number of teams in the race schedule.  Points will be awarded as follows:

Race schedule with 4 boats in all races
1st  - 4 points per person X 9 =  36
2nd - 3 points per person X 9 =  27
3rd  - 2 points per person X 9 = 18
4th  - 1 point   per person X 9 =   9 

Race schedule without 4 boats in all race
1st  - 4 points per person X 9 =  36
2nd - 3 points per person X 9 =  27
3rd  - 2 points per person X 9 =  18
4th  - 1 point   per person X 9 =  18

Time Trials - Point Awards will be based on overall standings of all boats racing. 

4.    Any crew violating any of the rules may have their position in that particular race changed by the race organizers. (Example: Downgrade the result of the crews’ position in that particular race and the points that match the new result).

5.    Crews are expected to be in their boats and off the dock by scheduled race time (fully crewed). “Late” crews will be warned and may be assigned a "point penalty" by the Dock Cop to hasten their row to the starting line.
