It looks like one rule for the boys and another for the girls.
Regatta season is fast approaching, with two key school events scheduled for later this month. Thereâs the Head of Schoolgirls Regatta held on March 12-14 on the Barwon River outside Geelong with the Associated Public Schools of Victoria Sport Regatta (mainly boys but which does include girls) on March 20 at Lake Nagambie.
Guess which event is allowing spectators?
Yes, convoys of four-wheel drives full of long-suffering rowing parents from Firbank and Melbourne Girlsâ Grammar will head down to Geelong in full knowledge that spectators have been banned from the HOSG Regatta.
