War of the Roses: CANCELLED

Unfortunately, we have had to cancel this year’s War of the Roses.

Bradford’s unique invitational Annual Veterans Regatta when we invite clubs from across the North to send their Master’s crews of all ages and abilities to enjoy a day of traditional scratch racing in Fours and Quads. Crews are chosen by ballot to mix up club members and introduce competitors to a new fun, experience as part of this knockout competition. The day culminates with an Eight’s sprint between a Red Rose crew and a White Rose crew with names being pulled from a hat to win the Peter Finney Trophy. A traditional Bradford curry dinner with beer finishes the evening in BARC’s unique style.
The 2023 event will be held on Saturday, April, 22. For more details see links below:
