Crew Registration
Please ensure you have read the rules & regulations before registering.
Register your crew
Once you complete your crew registration, RSJRC will issue an invoice and email it to the Crew Contact Person.
Payments should be sent preferably by Email Money Transfer (EMT) to [email protected] or by cheque made payable to The Royal St. John’s Regatta Committee Inc. Please include your Team Name in the memo section of your EMT or Cheque.
Once payment is received, RSJRC will issue a receipt and again email it to the Crew Contact Person.
Required Documents
All coaches, coxswains and team managers who are participating with a team (registered or as a spare), where a member is under the age of 18 are required to complete a Vulnerable Sector Check for each season.
This is a mandatory requirement to align with the safety and best practices of other sporting organizations. This is essential, as coaches, coxswains and/or team managers are in a position of authority and are entrusted with the well-being of youth and/or vulnerable person(s).
Obtaining a vulnerable sector check
To receive an exemption from the $20.00 fee, you will first need to obtain a letter from the Royal St. John’s Regatta Committee. To do this
- Request an Exemption Letter: https://forms.office.com/r/SWAGkeSpei
- When you receive your letter RSJRC, go to the RNC website and follow the instructions provided: https://www.rnc.gov.nl.ca/what-we-do/criminal-record-screening-certificate-vulnerable-sector-check/
- Completed Vulnerable Sector Checks are mailed via Canada Post directly to RSJRC for review.
Please note: Processing takes an average of 15 business days, please apply early to avoid any delays in processing, especially in the busy spring/summer months. Royal St. John’s Regatta Committee will not be accepting Vulnerable Sector Screening from any other organization.
