History of the Queensland GPS Head of the River rowing regatta

Old Boys Cup for Champion School

The Old Boys Cup was introduced in 1988 to recognise the most successful school at the Queensland GPS Rowing Head of the River.

The trophy was not awarded in 2010 due to adverse weather conditions forcing racing to be reduced to first, second and third crews. It was deemed that there insufficient results to warrant awarding the trophy.

The idea for this history originated from the Olympic Rowing and World Senior Rowing Championship histories written by Andrew Guerin and Margot Foster in 1991, 1992 & 1993 for the Australian team handbooks. Andrew Guerin developed and extended these histories to the current format in 2004 for publication in 2004 and then expanded the site.

Steve Roll has been an invaluable contributor to the website in locating errors and finding Christian names of rowers. His superb work is acknowledged.
