Notes

No entry fee is collected from the registered crews, except for the MASTERS category, where deposits are 100 CZK per slide. Penalty deposits, if any, for failure to appear at the start are collected in all categories at double the amount of the championship rowing races.

The entire programme of races is open to registered CVS competitors and crews of foreign clubs.

In the youth races (No. 1, 2) the minimum age of the coxswain is prescribed to be 16 years (reached during 2024). Advancement keys for youth races, taking into account the maximum number of allowed starts in one race day, will be annexed to the timetable. There will be no B final in these races.

If a club enters more than 8 (16, 24) competitors in an eight-man race (excluding Masters races), it must first form club crews without a community. The remaining competitors may then be entered into the community. If a club enters fewer than 8 competitors in a given category, it may only enter them in one community from a maximum of 2 clubs. When more than one clean club boat starts, at least one of the boats must include a coxman from the same club.

The eight Masters races (Nos. 3 and 4) will be run as split races on Saturday 1 June 2024. The division into individual heats will be made by a representative of the Masters Committee prior to the draw. Additional entries and changes in Masters crews that result in a change in age category are only allowed until the division presentation and prior to the meeting of the representatives so that the final division into categories and heats can be announced at the meeting. Additional entries are only possible if the entry field is not full and after consultation with the Masters Committee representative prior to the Troop Presentation. Crew change after the presentation is possible only within the entered category, older competitor may start in the younger category, vice versa is not possible.

In the women's eight-mile and skiff races, junior women may compete, but only in one of these races. The best crew meeting the age criteria of the junior category will be awarded in the 8+ W race.

The heats, corrective heats and possible semi-finals will take place on Saturday 1 June 2024. The time order and the advancement keys including the seeding of the courses will be attached to the minutes of the draw. Should weather conditions prevent the holding of the corrective heats or semi-finals, the advancement to the final heats will be according to the absolute times achieved in the heats, even in the case of so-called free starts. The B final will be held on Sunday 2 June 2024 always before the start of the respective A final, provided that at least eight boats participate in that race. The order of sixth place in the event of seven boats participating will be determined by the result of the corrective race.

Winners will be presented with medals and photos of the traveling prizes.
