Novice Cup

An event in Coxed IVs competed for annually between novice crews (those in their first year of rowing).

Novice Cup is the first race that Durham College novice rowers will compete in. Held over two days it combines head and regatta racing to introduce them to the fun racing can be. Saturday is an omnium-style head race where novices need to demonstrate the skills that they have learnt such as stopping on command and a 360° turn. Sunday takes place as a regatta where crews will be pitted against each other before the results from both days are combined to crown an ultimate winner.

Date: Saturday 19th and Sunday 20th November 2022
