It is with regret, but unfortunately an air of inevitability, that we have taken the decision to cancel Wallingford Regatta for 2020. It has been a deeply frustrating period for our sport, with events submitting to the weather over the winter months, and now this unprecedented challenge faces us. We are certain that we will all be back stronger from this, but our focus as a sport and a nation right now needs to be on supporting those that need it, and organising a rowing event is not at the top of that list. We wish you all well over this period, and thank you all for the work you are doing at this time; our thoughts are particularly with those who are vulnerable and those who are on the front-line of this pandemic.
Please try not to be frustrated, try to keep training where possible and above all listen to the advice and stay safe.
Ben Townsend.
Chairman – Wallingford Events.
