Regress Those Points

There is a bit of an anomaly with the British Rowing status points system, which will typically affect a few of the experienced Vets.

It all went to cock in April 2009, when they changed the points so that a Novice win counted as one.  This put everybody up one point.  Problem is that the system did not automatically regress those of us with 4 or more points, and who haven't won a senior qualifying event in years - typically most of the experienced Masters.

So if you do nothing, when you get your British Rowing Card and you haven't won anything for years, it will say 5 points instead of 4.

So if you fall into this category, make your life a little bit easier and fill out the regression form on this page:

and send it to:

Also, this is a good reminder for those seniors with overload on points to regress if at all possible.
