2021 Rowing Calendar

Dates beyond April are provisional, and this year some of the events may be in a different format from usual.

Page created 10 Sep 2018, last updated 5 Jan 2022.
The information here is unofficial. If, for the event you are looking at, there are no links here to the 2021 information, it may perhaps be worth trying last year's link (if there is one) from the 2020 calendar.  See also British Rowing's new calendar which now does have links (or this older version of the BR calendar)

All competitions in England were cancelled while in Lockdown-3; see BR guidance v11.2 for roadmap out of lockdown, & then version 12 from Mon 17th May, then version 12.1 from 17 Jun, & version 14 from 20 July.


The dates here from April onwards are provisional and incomplete.
