Hello everyone!

This is Helena, and I'm the Clare Hall women's Captain.

We are looking for a cox to cox us one day per week (we could negotiate for it to be more often).

If you're free and willing it would be a pleasure to have you.

Thanks!

Helena

Subject: [CUCBC Coxes] May Bumps 2016 Start Order
Message-ID: <2f4e0aca-1db6-48fa-969e-eb73e18efd22@Spark>

Dear all,

The start order for the Mays 2016 has been published; you should be able to view it here: http://www.cucbc.org/bumps/startorder/16

Based on the numbers of entries, the Senior Committee have decided to modify the split of men/women's crews slightly to 5 divisions of men and 4 divisions of women. The start order includes the list of crews required to Get On.

Any scratches should be directed to committee at cucbc.org such that we can update the start order and place crews back on. Similarly, if any crews need to switch to racing time only in the GoR, please also drop us an email.

Best of luck in exams and training,

Conor

Hi all,

First off - massive thanks to all of you for attending seminars in the
first series of Coaching the Coxes - seeing you guys wanting to learn made
it all worth it!

If you could take five minutes to fill in this survey it would be very
helpful for planning further iterations:
https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/65QSGPC

If any of you have questions about the talks or have questions about coxing
in general please do not hesitate to ask - I'm here to help. Furthermore if
any of you would like extra coxing opportunities or a club during the
summer Nines would be more than happy to have you!

Many thanks,

Dan

**Captains please forward this message to your clubs**

Dear all,

The time has come for Umpiring 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

The umpires briefing will be during the weekend of the 4th / 5th 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>*

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

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

Conor

Subject: [CUCBC Coxes] Safety Reminders
Message-ID: <b49d9467-4e97-4814-b69c-580908f3105a@Spark>

Dear Captains,

As we enter the last few weeks of Mays training, please ensure the followingremindersare disseminated to LBCs, VCs, Coxes and Coaches:

- Coxwains/steerspeople should ensure the river is clear inbothdirections before instructing their crews to push off.
- Whilst it is expected that faster crews will overtake slower ones,overtaking is only ever permitted where it is safe to do so. If your cox can't see that the river is clear for the entire duration of your overtake, they shouldn't be initiating one. The corners and the crossover points are not acceptable overtaking spots.
- Crews heading upstream (i.e. towards the boathouses) have priority at the cross-over points. That being said, if there is a crew (or even a slow moving narrowboat) already coming through, you do not have the right to try and squeeze past them. Stop and wait.
- No weekend rowing before 11am, even in small boats. Only CRA clubs and people training with University Squads may row before 11am on Saturdays and Sundays.
- The evening men's and women's hours are still in place, and enforceable with fines. Crews which are not first boats (or in the first two divisions of the Mays - seewww.cucbc.org/bumps/startorder/16), may not row between the hours of 17:30 and 20:00 on weekdays. IVs may row over the lock during these hours, but only if the crew is comprised of people who could be out in an VIII. Please ensure this message reaches LBCs in particular.
- Please keep Early Morning Noise to anabsolute minimum. Just because it is light, it doesn't mean you can wake up local residents,especially before 7:30am.
- Crews rowing below Baitsbite lockmust not carry out standing startsbeside moored boats (particularly in Horningsea - the first set of houses you come to heading downstream).Please also be vigilant of the swans and cygnets around that area, and be prepared to stop a piece if necessary.Ideally, try to start piecesbelow the last moored boat(just downstream of that massive house), and remember you should not be racing through Clayhithe bridge or the marina.Wherever possible, coxes should attempt to reduce wash alongside moored boats and use their common sense on what is and isn't acceptable.Sparring is not permitted below the lock.

Best wishes, and good luck with training,

Conor
