Trans-Tasman Rowing Regatta

The Trans-Tasman Rowing Regatta is an annual 3 stage Rowing test series held between the NZ and Australian University Rowing teams. The regatta is alternated between NZ and Australia on a yearly basis. In Australia, the NZ crews raced on the Sydney Olympic course in Penrith.

NZU Rowing selects a Men’s and Women’s Heavyweight 8, a Men’s Lightweight 4 and a Women’s Lightweight quad to race in the series. These crews are selected at the NZ University Games each year.
