What is an affiliation?
An affiliation is a group of rowers whose meters are totalled together to be listed in the Affiliation Standings. There is no limit on the number of members in any affiliation.
What are the Affiliation Standings?
The Affiliation Standings are the year-round listing of all affiliations based on the total number of meters rowed by all affiliation members. Each affiliation's total is reset at the beginning of every logbook and ranking season (May 1 every year). Note: Individuals who have "Show Name in Honor Board and Standings" set to "No" in their profile will not appear in the Affiliation Standings and their meters will not be counted.
How can I add myself to an affiliation?
- Log into your logbook,
- At the top right of the page (your photo or avatar), click Profile.
- Click Edit Profile.
- On the Affiliation tab, follow the instructions to select an affiliation.
- At the bottom of the page, click Update.
If you already have meters in your logbook for the current season (May 1–April 30), all of your meters from the beginning of the season will automatically be added to the affiliation's total. If you have not yet logged any meters, your name will not appear under your affiliation in the Affiliation Standings until you log some meters for the current season.
How can I have a new affiliation added to the list of choices?
If you do not see the club or university name in the list and would like to add it, please go to the contact page and choose "Request To Create New Affiliation".
Can I belong to two affiliations at the same time?
No, you can only belong to one affiliation at a time. If you change affiliations, all of your meters from the beginning of the season (May 1 every year) will change to your new affiliation’s total.
What is the difference between an affiliation and a team?
An affiliation is a year-round group of rowers showing meter totals on the Affiliation Standings page and a team is only related to certain team challenges that run throughout the year. See more in the Teams section below.
