    We regret that we are now forced to accept the inevitable and CANCEL the Schools Head on Wednesday. More information here: shorr.org.uk/2020/cancelled…

    Good luck to everyone racing today. Looks like it will be a wet one: don’t forget your splash-top!

    We are reviewing the weather forecast each day and will take advice from the PLA and others on Wednesday to determine if the race can take place. At present the concern is not the actual racing but the marshalling; changes may be necessary.

    It is highly likely that Wednesday's race will be run on a PLA Yellow Flag. We have therefore had to remove and refund all J15 crews, and crews with insufficient experience, from the draw. We are very sorry to those crews who will not get to race, but safety must be the priority.

    Spectators for #SHORR2023, please note that it will not be possible to watch the race from Hammersmith Bridge this year: the council have implemented a transit only rule on the bridge and are moving stationary pedestrians on. More info shorr.org.uk/2023/spectator…

    We hope everyone is as excited for tomorrow as we are! Updated diagrams for the marshalling area and the full course are now on our website, and attached. Please make sure all coxes and competitors know the circulation pattern, and are aware of where they need to marshal.
