The organisers reserve the right to combine starts or to split starts based on entry numbers. Where starts need to be split the organiser will seed paddlers based on Hasler divisions. Non Championship Race Classes The Mini K1 and K2 non championship classes are intended for Geoff Sanders B and C paddlers who are not ready for the main championship classes. These races are non point scoring. New Race Classes The MRC and the organisers are pleased to offer, on a trial basis, an Open B class for the paddlers who do not feel ready to race the Senior classes. These races will be over the 13km course and are restricted to Division 4 and below for Men and Division 5 and below for Women. Club points will be awarded, but not national titles for these races. Seeded and Combined Starts Seeded Starts – The organisers reserve the right to seed starts where the number of entries to a class is larger than is suitable to reasonably fit on a single line. Where this is deemed necessary boats will be seeded based on Hasler Division. The number of boats seeded will be determined based on the number and ability of the entries. A list of classes where seedings are to be applied will be made available at the earliest possible point after entries have closed. Instructions for how these starts will work will also be issued. Late changes to crew boat may not result in re-seeding. This will be at the discretion of the organisers. Combined Starts – Where races are inquorate or sufficiently small to reasonably allow combining, the organisers may combine starts. A list of combined starts will be published at the earliest opportunity. Information on if combined starts will be treated as two sets of results or a single race will be issued with the list of combined starts. |
