Rowing Australia and its State Associations have over the past few years identified the need for an improved national web-based rowing management system. Reviews have been carried out including extensive conciliation with users of the current management system. This has lead the Steering Committee to recommend trials of Regatta Central, the world’s largest rowing regatta registration, regatta management and club management system. Rowing Australia has established a dedicated page on their website. This page includes some background to the review process, answers to some ‘frequently asked questions’, a memo to clubs regarding the Regatta Central trials, and each of the Steering Committee update bulletins.
