Dear all,
The Umpiring Sign Up for Eights Regatta is now open. Umpiring is a great way to
get involved in the racing and you get the chance to be right at the centre of
the action - either by cycling along with the crews or acting as a static
umpire along the course.
Everyone who volunteers for umpiring before Friday 4th June will count towards
their college's marshal allocation (if you sign up after this, please drop me
an email!).
You don't need to have umpired before; there will be a briefing for all umpires
ahead of racing where we will explain everything and answer any questions you
may have. However, we do ask that you have either:
Helped to organise / umpire / marshal a race on the Cam before
OR rowed or coxed in at least 2 sets of bumps before
OR rowed or coxed in at least two side-by-side regattas before.
Please remember that you can both compete and umpire. We suggest you leave one
umpiring slot clear before your race and one after to allow you to get to and
from the boathouses. The provisional division times are available here:

The umpires briefing will be on Zoom, likely 12th / 13th June. It'll last about
half an hour, and I’ll endeavour to distribute a first draft of the umpiring
rota before the meeting.
