Girls' Quad Race ...
   
The Boat Race became so popular, so quickly, that soon there was pressure to introduce a similar event for girls' schools, but since girls in South Africa did not row sweep-oar events, a Quad Race was introduced.

It remains an important goal for SASRU one day to introduce Girls' Eights.  As a first step toward this goal, "coxless pairs" events for girls were introduced into South African regattas in 2004.   We hope that before many years elapse there will be a proper Boat Race for girls - in eights!!!

Trophies are presented to the winning crew and the runners-up in the A-final.
Gold, silver and bronze medals are presented to the three top-placed crews.

The Challenge is primarily an event for schools, at present Clubs may enter only with the permission of the SASRU President.
