NSW Rowing rules which the GPS rowing use: A school competitor is one who is a bona fide school student of a registered school and who is under 19 years of age throughout the current season. This definition also applies to the coxswain of a school crew. This means that if you turn 19 the week after the HOR you are still eligible, you just cant actually be 19 during the season.
Hi Barry, that is interesting. I tried to find the definition of 'season' in the LoBR. When GPS adopts the RNSW rules the season for RNSW isd different to GPS. Also for RNSW the age is based on the age on the 31st of Dec that year. Which means if a schoolboy turns 19 in the calender year when the HOTR takes place he can't compete. Would love to get some clarity. It will also sort pathway kids out (I am referring to the schools pathway, not the RA pathway for U19 rowers)
