NZSSRA website
Welcome to the New Zealand Secondary Schools Rowing Association website. This site is aimed at providing schools and school rowers with an easily accessed resource of information about schools rowing in New Zealand.
Non-financial members
Inevitably, at the start of each year there are a number of members who have yet to pay their annual subscription but might be expected to pay and attend NZSSRA regattas later in the year. There is a list of non-financial members (as of 1 February 2010), who we hope will maintain their membership of NZSSRA.
If your school is on the list please contact the Executive Officer as soon as payment has been arranged (cheque posted, direct credit set, etc) so the school's status can be updated and online regatta entry becomes accessible for it.

Remits
Members are reminded the closing date for submission of remits for the AGM is Monday, 15 February 2010.
Note: The Rules and Regulations are not up for change in 2010 (ref cl 10.6 of constitution) so unless there is an emergency to be dealt with remits should be of a general nature or relate only to changes of the constitution or safety system.

Championships tent sitesupdated NISSC/SISSC/Maadi
We have been getting a steady trickle of enquiries about tent sites at our Championships regattas. The following information is available for those who are interested:
- South Island Champs & Maadi: tent sites are ordered through SIRI's Secretary: secretary@sir.org.nz. They are allocated for an entire season on a first-come first-served basis. The current 2009-2010 season site allocations are listed in the December newsletter from South Island Rowing Inc.
- North Island Champs: tent sites are ordered as part of the online regatta entry process. They are ordered on a regatta-by-regatta basis and will be balloted after close of entries. Sites are 9m x 9m and your tent must fit entirely within the site boundaries.
