J4H | Entries Update - 25th October 2025

London, 25 October 2025

For Immediate Release

We aimed to see around 250 junior crews race this year, and the race committee is delighted to share that 275 crews have been accepted to race.

While we're thrilled to be oversubscribed in our first year, we understand that some may be disappointed. We want to ensure a safe race for all participants on the Tideway and will review how to build on this for next year.  

A big thank you to everyone who submitted their entries and followed the instructions. We will maintain a waiting list for each event, and should an accepted crew withdraw, we will contact the next crew(s) on the list as appropriate and accept them if they wish to race. 

The draw and boating locations for accepted crews will be posted after the close of entries. 

Crews can still connect to our race virtually through one of our exciting sponsors: The RP3 Virtual Fours Festival of Rowing.

The draw and volunteer job list will be posted soon. Those who offered to help through our survey will ALL go into the draw for the Filippi prize draw.  

Thank you to everyone involved in launching this event! See you on 14 November.
