Dear all,

Please ensure you remind your crews that anyone going out in the morning should minimise all noise (including cox boxes) before 7:30am, and keep coxing calls to the bare minimum upstream of the Railway bridge at this time. Even after 7:30am, please be considerate of other river users and residents.

Repeat offenders will be fined and further offences will result in training bans.

Best wishes,
Conor

Message-ID: <CAHJTxyUztYe+eP1V=qD+a0m2ZJY18ODh+9+CV9Mr=u_CwaButQ@mail.gmail.com>

Dear Captains,

The minutes from the Captains' Meeting have been published on the website
and can be found here: http://www.cucbc.org/minutes. I have also attached
them to this email.

You should have recieved the correct version of this term's bill via email
from Dan Wilkins, the senior treasurer. There were errors in generating the
initial bills sent round, so please check you are looking at the correct
one. If you have not got it, please email us ASAP and we will resend it to
you. The payment is due by *Friday 12th May*. The bank details are at the
bottom of your bill. If you have any issues please contact
seniortreasurer at cucbc.org

May Bumps entries are now open on the CUCBC website. As per usual you will
need your club log in  for the CUCBC website in order to enter your crews.
Entries cost ?40 per crew. The deadline for entering and paying for May
Bumps is *Friday 12th May at 23:45*.

When paying your termly bill and bumps entries (bank details at the bottom
of your bill), please send an email to seniortreasurer at cucbc.org to confirm
your payment amount and the reference you used. Unclaimed payments are
treated as charitable donations to CUCBC.

Once you have entered all your crews on the CUCBC website, you must
complete the Bumps Programme Crew List Form. This is available here:
http://www.thebumps.co.uk/crewlists. The deadline for this is also *Friday
12th May at 23:45*. If you have any issues with submitting crew lists for
the Bumps Programme, you should email George Gilbert (george.gilbert@
metaswitch.com).

Finally, applications are now open for joining the CUCBC Committee for next
year. We would like to formally vote in a new Honorary Secretary at the
next Captains' Meeting (Sunday 11th June) so that the committee is ready
for the start of Michaelmas Term. We also need new people to join the
Executive Committee to help out with race organisation and admin. The more
people we have on the committee, the less each person has to do! Anyone
from your club that is interested in joining the committee or just wants to
find out more about what it entails should email David Munday (
chair at cucbc.org). The Honorary Secretary has to be a current student, but
other committee members do not have to be current students. So please pass
this on to the rest of your club or anyone you think would be interested.


Best wishes,
Kate

Dear all,

We are currently 2 rowers and a cox short of having a complete W4 for 
this term. If you have any keen rowers that didn't make it into a crew, 
please have them get in touch with me! We want the crew to be 
competitive this term (i.e. they will do the GOR and bumps if they make 
it).

They will train 3 times per week (Wed, Fri mornings, Sun), with 1 erg 
and a fitness session.

Let me know if there is anyone interested - I'm happy to get in touch 
with them!

Thanks,

Emily

Message-ID: <CAKvsxXs_G0zRu8pRH3cHs5kdMai0GK8EBm6+DS-QhjOgFDxABA@mail.gmail.com>

Sunday 28th May sees our annual 'Cambridge Nines' Spring Regatta.

This 1000m side-by-side race up the Long Reach is an enjoyable
afternoon of racing in 8s, and the perfect preparation for May bumps.
Come and practise those racing starts and size up the opposition in
your division.

The regatta is a plate competition, meaning everyone will get at least
two races. We'll run divisions back-to-back, so your racing should be
complete in about 2.5 hours.* Pots will be awarded to the winning
crews at the Cambridge '99 RC boathouse after the event and the club
fielding the most winning crews will be awarded bonus prize of a slab
of beer. Bar will be open until late and there will be a BBQ running.

Please submit your entries on-line where you can pay via transfer,
cheque (our first time using this system so please email if you have a
problem)

https://webcollect.org.uk/cambridge99/event/cambridge-nines-regatta

A couple of years ago, as an experiment, we changed the way we
organised your entries into races to make the event smoother and
minimise delays. This worked well so we'd like to keep the same format
in 2017.

We will rank crews in order of their standing at the end of the last
May Bumps and pick out groups of 8 crews to form divisions. This will
mean you'll be racing crews that are likely in the same Mays division
as you, but there is a chance you could be racing a crew in a division
higher or lower at some point.

Entries will close on Sunday the 21st of May and the draw will come
out on Monday 22nd of May.

*Last-minute scratchings or odd numbers of entries in a division may
require a crew to be given a bye through to the next round. This may
reduce the number of races, or could necessitate a wait while other
crews race.

Please direct any enquires to regatta at cambridge99.org and a member of
the organising committee will get back to you.

Keith.

Dear all,

X-press boat club would like to invite you to race at the X-press head race which takes place on the evening of Tuesday 6th of June 2017(Div1 at 7pm, Div2 at 8.30pm). This is your chance to race the bumps course undisrupted, which for many crews will be a very useful experience since bumps can be quite unpredictable and the river quite crowded on a daily basis during the final week of training.

Please find all relevant information on the poster attached. You can enter online at www.xpressbc.org.uk <http://www.xpressbc.org.uk/> under the tab Xpress head.

Dear Captains,

I hope that your Mays campaigns are going well. Having just completed 
our cox selection, we have one very good and keen cox spare. She coxed 
Caius M2 last term (to the M2 Lents Headship no less) and is really keen 
to take on a Mays crew. Unfortunately, due to losing rowers to exams, we 
cannot offer her a boat but are really keen for her to compete.

If there are any boat clubs in the opposite situation - a crew needing a 
good cox - please either contact me (Caius Men's Captain, Emily Smith, 
es617) or Kathryn Knight, the cox (kk598).

Thank you,

Emily Smith , Caius Boat Club Men's Captain

Message-ID: <CACzzVOrGBKQrXh07zp7fo4EiUB1wbYJCVw3L48L8GiPy_ADKPw@mail.gmail.com>

Dear all,

Christ's are one cox short this term and are looking for someone to cox
their W2 crew this term as we are working our other coxes far too hard to
cover for them.  If anyone has a spare cox willing to take on this crew,
that would be much appreciated.  Please contact me (ma616) directly if so.

Best wishes,

Miriam Apsley

Message-ID: <CAPREJqFOSPbzzX36EMEyKCzfoQyfoSE7Hp1MeiEs6Sd1Az0W=w@mail.gmail.com>

Dear Captains and Coxes,

Many of you will have noticed that there are now a family of cygnets on the
river (their range seems centred on the gut, but they've been as far as
Baitsbite and the Long Reach).

This seems a good time to remind coxes and bank parties of the guidelines
agreed between the various groups of river users relating to wildlife at
this time of year. I'm sure most of you have seen these before, but just in
case, the link is below:

http://www.cucbc.org/system/files/Wildlife%20on%20the%20River%20Cam%20-%20Guidelines.pdf

Please take the time to let bank parties know about this, since the cygnets
are sometimes invisible from the coxes seat.

Very best wishes for the next few weeks of training and thankyou for
reading,

Robert

Message-ID: <5ed8a1da-682e-d343-e3ce-adb91fe566ae@cucbc.org>

Dear All,

(Captains - please forward to / discuss with your coaches)

There have been several instances in the last couple of weeks or so 
where crews have made some very poor overtakes - particularly when 
running late heading downstream to the lock during the evening 
changeover period! Most have been without consequence, some have caused 
obstruction to oncoming crews though fortunately I'm not yet aware of 
one that has caused injury or serious damage.

I'd like to remind you of the following points:

1) The river is NOT a one-way system - irrespective of the time of day 
there will probably be other boats travelling in the opposite direction. 
Remember that town crews are not bound by lighting up/down times.
2) In order to overtake another crew, you MUST be able to see enough of 
the river to move to the other side, row past and get back to your side, 
all the time being CERTAIN that you will not obstruct any oncoming 
boats. At this time of year there's a good chance that that oncoming 
boat will be a men's 1st VIII at full chat.
3) The bankparty has a different point of view to the cox of a boat - 
working together you can identify safe overtakes in some places where 
the cox alone cannot.
4) You must NOT overtake on a corner. Even if you have worked with your 
coach to identify that there's no oncoming traffic, do you really trust 
the other crew to steer a perfect line?
5) Coxes - before you move out to overtake, ask yourself whether you 
would have time to complete the manouevre if an VIII appeared in the 
distance, coming towards you at a normal speed for that part of the 
river (e.g. paddling along Riverside, race pace in Plough Reach). Do you 
have time to complete your overtake? Can your coach see more and help 
you out? Can you safely overtake?
6) If another crew asks to 'come by', please don't deny them purely for 
the sake of ego. If there's a queue ahead, or if you can see something 
oncoming that they can't, or you think it's not a safe choice for some 
other reason, by all means respond in the negative.

I well understand the desire to overtake a slower boat and get some 
clear water to work at your own pace. However, in order to avoid further 
clashes/damage, and to optimise traffic flow on the river, please ensure 
that you are not taking chances and hoping that nothing is coming the 
other way. Likewise, please cooperate when a faster crew is behind you - 
don't hog the middle of the river and give a clear acknowledgement when 
they ask to 'come by'.

I know that many of you cut it fine when heading down to the lock during 
the changeover period. However, I'd much prefer to have people tutting 
and rolling their eyes because you're there 5 minutes late than to hear 
about a serious accident. That said, if you're passing under the railway 
bridge at 6.57 you really should turn around and head back upstream 
rather than treat the reserved hours with blatant disrespect.

Coxes - if your coach tells you to go past another crew, and you're not 
sure, it's OK to hang back and choose not to pass. You might miss out on 
a bit of clear water, but you can talk about it with your coach later 
and make a more informed decision next time.

Coaches - talk to your coxes about overtaking, especially those with 
less experience. Explain that on the approach to some corners you can 
see further down the river than they can, and what clear instructions 
you'll give as and when you think an overtake is safe and necessary.


Regards,

Mark Jacobs

*Captains please forward this message to your clubs*

Dear all,

The time has come for May Bumps Umpires Sign Up. Umpiring is a great way to get involved in the racing and you get the chance to be right at the centre of the action - either by cycling along with the crews or acting as a static umpire along the course. 

As a 'thank you' for your time, all umpires are offered a free dinner (including drinks) at the Cambridge Blue pub, the week after bumps. Those who volunteer to umpire also count towards their college's marshal allocation.

You don't need to have umpired before. There will be a meeting for all umpires ahead of racing where we explain everything and all new umpires are paired with a 'senior' one during racing. However, we do ask that you have rowed or coxed in at least 2 sets of bumps before so that you understand how the races work. 

Please remember that you can both compete and umpire. We suggest you leave 2 divisions clear before your race and 1 after to allow you to get to and from the boathouses. The division times are available here: http://www.cucbc.org/mays/times <http://www.cucbc.org/mays/times>

The umpires briefing will be on Sunday 11th June and should last about half an hour. The exact time and location will be confirmed nearer the time, and I?ll endeavour to distribute a first draft of the umpiring rota before the meeting.

You can sign up here: http://www.cucbc.org/mays/umpires/signup <http://www.cucbc.org/mays/umpires/signup> - ideally before 2nd June please.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at conor at cucbc.org <mailto:conor at cucbc.org>

Many thanks for helping to make the Bumps possible, and best of luck with exams and training,

Conor

Hi all,

Thanks to everyone who has signed up so far - we're a decent way towards a full complement, but we're not there yet!

Please encourage anyone you think might be interested (who's also eligible) to sign up by this Friday evening.

See my previous email below for details, and here's the link: http://www.cucbc.org/mays/umpires/signup

Many thanks,
