A note from the Honorary Secretary:
At the Pre-Michaelmas Term Captains Meeting, two rule changes which will affect rowing this term were ratified:
The first is a change to early mornings. At the Captain’s Meeting, it was agreed that there would be specified Novice—and Senior-only mornings. In brief, Monday and Wednesday mornings will only be for Novices before 9 a.m., and Tuesday and Thursday mornings will only be for senior crews before 9 a.m.
The exact rule can be found here.
This rule is being trialled for Michaelmas Term 2024 and will be reviewed after Term. It will come into force from Monday 14th of October and remain in place until Fairbairns on the 5th of December.
Adherence to this rule will be enforced by the Early Morning Marshals. For clarity, a novice Cox with a senior crew can boat on senior mornings if they are able to get to the Railway Bridge without intervention from the bank (in compliance with early morning noise). On senior mornings, crews must maintain a minimum of half-crew, full slide rowing to the P&E to keep traffic flowing.
The second change is to the location of Early Morning Marshals. This is in response to concerns regarding antisocial behaviour on the towpath and aims to make EMMs less vulnerable. Marshal 1 starts their shift outside the Combined Colleges boathouse, Marshal 2 at the Footbridge near Pembroke and Emma before joining Marshal 1 at Combined, and both patrol together. The rest of the role remains unchanged.
The website is being updated with these changes.
