Henley Women's Regatta

Henley Women's Regatta

Henley Women's Regatta is a rowing regatta held at Henley-on-Thames, England. It was formed as a result of the lack of women's events at Henley Royal Regatta and first held in 1988. Women's Henley is held on the same stretch of the Thames as Henley Royal but the course is shorter 1,500 m (Henley is 2,112 m) and stops at the Remenham Club.It takes place over Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 2 weeks before Henley Royal.

Since 2004 the regatta has used Intermediate, Senior and Elite categories instead of College, Club and Open. This is still up for further review and may change again in the near future.
