Never has it been a more exciting time for British Sport, and particularly British Rowing. Some of our strongest medal hopes lie with the British rowing squad and Dorney Lake looks set to be the backdrop to an exciting and much anticipated games.Whilst London 2012 gives those at the pinnacle of their rowing careers the opportunity to test their metal against a global competition, it also offers all facets of the sport the opportunity to utilise the world’s finest competitive rowing facilities. LOCOG have kindly given Marlow Regatta at Dorney Lake dispensation, as one the UK’s leading domestic events, to run the event between June 16th and 17th 2012. The Marlow Regatta committee would like to take this opportunity to publically thank LOCOG and Dorney Lake for allowing access to the lake during the lock down period, allowing our competitors to race on the course so close to the prestigious games. All those involved in the event are extremely excited at the prospect of this event and are delighted to be able to invite athletes to get a glimpse of the site, and compete on the Olympic lake before the Hunter’s and Purchase’s of this world (hopefully) turn the lake gold for Team GB next August.There will, of course, be some modifications to the logistics of the event to allow for the vital preparation for the Games to continue, but Marlow Regatta at Dorney Lake will still offer the high level of competition that has come to be the hallmark of the event. An increased racing programme for Masters in addition to the traditional programme means that there is an even greater opportunity for the whole rowing community to have a piece of the action. The regatta committee would like to take this opportunity to invite the rowing community, athletes and spectators to savour the build up to the games and get a glimpse of what next August will bring to Dorney Lake. For more information please see www.themarlowregatta.comhttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=182Thu, 27 Oct 2011 18:14:50 +0000Newshttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=179A meeting of the full Marlow Regatta committee was held at Leander Club on Wednesday 19th October where the following items were confirmed for the 2012 regatta.The regatta would take place on Saturday 16th (2000m) and Sunday 17th (1000m) June.Racing for Masters' crews (men's and women's) would be retained on the Sunday.The Masters' events would be extended to offer a fuller range of age categories.Sunday racing would return to the normal heats & finals format.With the Olympic Regatta taking place at Dorney Lake later in 2012 there will be some disruption to the facilities available to other regattas held on the course earlier in the year.

Even with adding just two age categories for both men and women we are adding a further 28 events to our Sunday schedule. Will there be handicap races? No, races will be in either the B or D categories only, with no handicaps. Several members of the regatta committee have experienced racing in handicap races which, although deemed "fair", do not offer the side by side racing that makes rowing the exciting sport we wish to take part in. Following several recent trips to take part in the FISA Masters Regatta, and with the agreement of the British Rowing Competitions Committee, it has been agreed that Marlow Regatta can run a trial to offer Masters events in a similar format to the FISA Master's Regatta. We hope that this will lead to some exciting and close Masters races with crews of similarly matched ages. How does the FISA Master's Regatta work? The FISA Master's Regatta offers races for all age categories. It takes place over 3 days at a different location each year. Each race counts as a final, with medals being awarded to the race winner(s). Races are drawn in each category based on average crew age, with the 6 youngest crews drawn in race 1, then next 6 in race 2 etc. This way, even if older competitors enter a younger class they will likely be racing crews of a similar or closer age. (It is very common for crews to race in both their age category and the previous one, so C crews racing in B, Ds in C and so on.) So even if you are a Master's C or E crew we hope you will enter and that we can match you up with crews of a similar average age in the B or D events. Masters at Marlow Each Masters race will be a straight final of 6 crews with medals awarded to the winners. Where required an event may have one or more races to accommodate all competitors, with the winners of each race receiving medals. Crews will be drawn into races based on their average age. There will be no heats and competitors my double up within the restrictions of the order of racing. Substitutions will only be allowed where they do not reduce the average age of the crew.

The name derives from the fact that the rowing course has a total of ten lanes (up to 8 for racing plus one for safety each side). Thus ‘Lane Eleven’ is a lane of shops on land! For suppliers of clothing, footwear and equipment to the rowing community, a pitch in ‘Lane Eleven’ our tented shopping village is a must. They will have a market of over 2000 oarsmen on their doorstep for the day. Many other businesses should also consider taking a pitch: Besides the athletes, there will be several thousand spectators present. Ideal for outdoor clothing, equipment suppliers, and consumer service companies of all types.http://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=115Sat, 05 Feb 2011 10:47:16 +0000Newshttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=109 A full set of photos from Maureen Division 1 Division 2 Division 3 Team Photos and Winners Supporters and Organisershttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=109Wed, 02 Feb 2011 07:33:43 +0000Newshttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=104 Photographs are now available for the 2011 TVTH from Maureen McLeanhttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=104Wed, 02 Feb 2011 08:05:26 +0000Newshttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=106 The Masters handicap results are now available on the TVTH 2011 results page.http://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=106Sun, 30 Jan 2011 22:00:23 +0000Newshttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=100 The 2011 Thames Valley Trial Head took place in bright, still but slightly chilly (sub 5degC) conditions this Sunday. The capacity entry were treated to some excellent racing conditions at Dorney Lake as they looked to set their fastest times on the 1,900m timed course. Thanks to the competitors and their coaches cooperation we managed to start 2 of the 3 divisions ahead of schedule and all was completed and the site vacated by 15:30. The Mikrotime results service produced printed results within minutes of each division completing and the full set of recorded times can now be found via the TVTH 2011 Results page. We hope we haven't made any mistakes in the timing, but should you happen to spot any please let us know. Please note that we have not yet published the Masters handicapped times, but plan to do so as soon as we can. Congratulations to all the competitors who took part, especially the winners, on the high quality of racing on show. We look foward to seeing you all again next year.http://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=100Thu, 27 Jan 2011 14:59:07 +0000Newshttp://www.themarlowregatta.com/feed/read.php?itemid=98 There will be NO ACCESS for trailers until 7.00 a.m. The entry gates will be CLOSED.
