Medals (gold, silver, bronze) will be awarded to winning crews when race results are confirmed and official. Special trophies will be awarded for designated events.

Team Points Trophy
Points will be awarded in each 8+ and 4+ event to the school or club with whom the winning boat is affiliated.

The school or club winning the most points overall will be awarded the Regatta Trophy.
