Junior Nationals: Junior teams that qualify by coming in 1st or 2nd at the Northwest Regional Regatta may go to the Junior USRA National Regatta. If a member of the regional boat is unable to go to the National Regatta they could be replace, but no more than 1/2 of the original seating can be replaced.vAll rowers who qualify in a boat will stay in that boat. At the coaches discretion and with good reason, they could petition USRA to allow an entry and within 48 hours of the petition would have to have the ERA Council approval. The petition would then be removed if the Council does not approve. The ERA will pay for the entry fees and coaching before travel, but the rest of the trip expenses would be the responsibility of the participants and their families and would include travel expenses, equipment rental/travel, lodging, and food. At the time of planning the Council could award the team with additional financial assistance. 25
