Cancellation of Ryde Rowing Clubs Annual Regatta. Scheduled for Saturday, 15th May, 2021.

It has become apparent that due to the on-going Government Covid-19 restrictions and guidance from our governing body - British Rowing - it will not be possible to go ahead with Ryde Rowing Clubs Annual Hants & Dorset ARA Championship Regatta on the planned date of Saturday, 15th May - a problem that has been further compounded by the on-going activities of Southern Water investigating and seeking to repair the sink hole that appeared near the Clubhouse and has caused much disruption in the area around the Clubhouse and along the seafront where the regatta takes place.
Therefore I must advise you that the Ryde R. C. Regatta will not now take place on Saturday, 15th May as scheduled.
The Club is actively pursuing alternative dates later in the summer when the Government Covid-19 regulation may be relaxed and British Rowing gives approval for the resumption of competitions. However the other Hants & Dorset ARA fixtures, the summer season and the on-going activities of Southern Water round the Clubhouse,  and along the seafront may well make this impossible forcing us to cancel the Regatta for the 2nd year running following the cancellation of last years event due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
One possible alternative date we are considering is  Saturday, 7th August.  
 
Steve Bull.
Regatta Secretary.

Virtual Round Brownsea Race.

All Hants and Dorset Clubs.
Virtual Round Brownsea Race

Poole RC are wishing to revive the Round Brownsea Island race, but in line with
these current times with a little twist – a virtual one from the comfort of your own
home.
In conjunction with some clever people at Runcorn RC we are able to offer an ‘App’
which entrants can download and connect to their ergo and allows us to link people
up from the same club to form crews and race against crews from other clubs. We
can form crews of 2, 3 or 4 people in various age/gender classes if we have enough.
We will split the event up into divisions so that a family can use the same ergo in
different divisions.
The hope is to run the event in March and also to have footage of the course around
the island so that you can watch your progress around the island as you ergo.
On our couple of test events we have found that the key is the technology – the app
only runs on a pc or laptop, it does not run on an ipad or iphone. So you need an
ergo, a pc or laptop and a printer type cable to hard wire the two together. Plus a
decent wifi/internet connection so a remote gym or garage may not be perfect.
This is a pre invite to gauge the level of interest from clubs, we hope this is a great
way to start getting our competitive juices going and bringing the association back
together after such a long time apart – we are missing you all!
So could you push out to your members let me have an idea of the level of
interest/ability to meet the technology requirements from your club by Friday 26 th
February on pjacobs757@aol.com
Many thanks
Pete Jacobs, Club captain
Matt Sewell, Event Organiser
