BII Compliance, Arc Technology,
SafeBoot and SecureWave Partner for
Client day at Henley
8th July 2007.
Henley Royal Regatta is a rowing event held every
year on the River Thames by the town of Henley-on-Thames, England.
The Royal Regatta is still sometimes referred to as Henley Regatta,
its original name pre-dating Royal patronage. It should not be confused
with the three other regattas rowed over approximately the same
course (Henley Women's Regatta, Henley Veterans Regatta and Henley
Town & Visitors Regatta), each of which is entirely separate.
The regatta lasts for 5 days (Wednesday to Sunday) over the first
weekend in July. Races are head-to-head knock out competitions,
raced over a course of 1 mile, 550 yards (2,112 m). The regatta
regularly attracts international crews to race. The most prestigious
event at the regatta is the Grand Challenge Cup for Men's Eights,
which has been awarded since the regatta was first staged.
