From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Henley Boat Races are a number of rowing races between the University of Oxford and the University of Cambridge. Taking place on the River Thames at Henley, they are for crews that do not race in the main London Boat Race:
- Women's Boat Race
- Women's Reserves (Osiris vs Blondie)
- Lightweight Men's Boat Race
- Lightweight Men's Reserves (Nephthys vs Granta)
- Lightweight Women's Boat Race
The races currently take place over a 2,000 m course, downstream - the opposite direction to the Henley Royal Regatta course - and finish halfway down Temple Island. Currently Cambridge have abandoned their Granta boat due to lack of funding.

*The events until 1935 were not run as races, but were instead largely judged on style merit marks. For the first couple of races, the two crews were not allowed to be on the river at the same time
