RowOn Beach Sprint Cup Series Standings

The RowOn Beach Sprint Cup Series tracks individual athlete performance across the full season, rewarding participation, consistency, and excellence. Athletes in the Under-19 (U19) and Open categories who compete in the Olympic coastal class events (C1x and CMix2x) accumulate points, which are combined into a single individual series total. Points will be tracked throughout the season and series champions will be recognized at the close of the season in four individual categories: U19 women, U19 men, Open women, and Open men. A club champion will also be recognized, awarded to the club whose athletes earn the most cumulative points across the season.

About Coastal Beach Sprint Rowing

Coastal Beach Sprint rowing will make its Olympic debut at the Los Angeles 2028 Games, after the International Olympic Committee added it to the rowing programme in October 2023. Races combine a beach sprint start, a row out around slalom and turn buoys, and a finish back on the sand. This compact, knockout-style format is easy for spectators to follow from the shoreline. Working with partners, the Cup Series provides race equipment at every Cup, so athletes can participate without owning or transporting coastal boats, lowering both the cost and the barriers to reaching the start line.
