Reminder: Bumps Dispensation Requests Due!

If you are hoping to row for Cantabs in the CRA (‘Town’) Bumps between Tuesday 22 July 2014 – Friday 25 July, please make sure that you are eligible according to the rules: http://www.crarowing.co.uk/town-bumps/bumps-rules

The most relevant rule is #2.5:

2.5 All rowing members must not have competed (rowing or sculling) for another club, other than a non University CRA club, unless allowed under sub-paragraphs below or under rule 2.6, since 1 January prior to the races.

  1. Anyone, who in the current academic year, was either a full-time student or full-time graduate student and who rowed or coxed in the CRA Bumping Races, for at least two previous years – one year if as a Junior (J18) – before going to his or her current place of education. Changes of colleges or courses within the same University do not affect the meaning of “current”.
  2. Anyone who has rowed or coxed in the CRA Bumping Races for at least two previous years, but who has substituted at a non CRA event in a non CRA crew or in a non recorded composite on not more than two occasions since 1 January. One day in each of the Lent or May races to be treated as one separate occasion.

If you think you might need a dispensation, as described in rule 2.6, please make sure the relevant Vice-Captain is aware and has submitted details via Mike Hunter to be considered by the CRA delegates. Mike must have received these details by Monday evening (2nd June), so if you are in any doubt, please take to your Vice-Captain now!
