The ACT Rowing Association is the peak rowing body for the Australian Capital Territory and south east New South Wales. The Association's primary functions are to foster the sport in the region, and to control regattas within the region. All rowing clubs in the region that wish to take part in races within Australia must be affiliated with the Association. A committee runs the Association and is elected annually. The Committee meets monthly and an index to the minutes can be found here. ACTRA is an incorporated association under its own constitution and by-laws.

Rower Registration Rowers and coxswains are registered with ACTRA by each club. Individuals cannot register with ACTRA other than through a club membership. Your local club knows the procedure for this and maintains the ACTRA registration records for your club. Only registered members can participate in regattas.
