CUBC is sad to advise that, following direct government directives and measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19, the 2020 Boat Race has been cancelled.
Our common concern is that all students, members, families and supporters remain healthy.
Who else wants to be back out on the water? 🙋♂️🙋♀️
Lockdown training continues for our squads but we can't wait to get back on the water when it is safe to do so.
