Entries will open for the next Head of the River Race on 4th January 2025. Entry instructions for the 2025 event are now available here and clubs are encouraged to read these in full. Full details of the 2025 Award Categories and Small and Medium Club classifications are also available for clubs to review. The Committee invite clubs that are not classified and believe they would rank in the Medium categories to submit a request for a category prior to the 7th of February 2025. Please note that those without classification may be moved into Medium, but not Small. This is to encourage entries from those who have not participated before or for a considerable period of time.
