Stotesbury is partnering once again with SRAA for Lightweight Certification. A single certification will cover both regattas.

The deadline for submission of the Stotesbury Cup Lightweight Certification Form is April 1st.
USRowing waivers must be completed online via Regatta Central. Once completed, the online waiver applies to ALL USRowing registered regattas in 2026. To start the waiver process, log in to Regatta Central and click the 'SIGN WAIVER' link located in the 'My Roster' box.
No competitor will be allowed to race without a signed waiver on file. Coaches, note: Waivers must be executed by parents. Start early!
Entries (and payment) are due at 11:59 pm on Tuesday, May 5. After that date, late entries will be accepted at the discretion of the Regatta Committee on a "lane available" basis through 11:59 pm on Friday, May 8. Line-ups are due at the time of registration.
As in past years, the Schuylkill Navy's Stotesbury Cup Regatta is a USRowing sanctioned regatta.
Competing programs must be USRowing Organizational Members at a sanctioned regatta; and, all individual athletes must have signed the USRowing online waiver (ensuring that their Basic Membership is current). An alternative option for the program is to purchase a Regatta Pass, if they do not wish to join USRowing in 2026.
Exceptions:
USRowing membership information can be found HERE.
Given that Stotesbury categories are capped for several events, we are not able to offer a refund on Entry Fees for scratched boats.
