How Does the Isis Winter League Work?
The Isis Winter League is a head race. Head races are races that take place in autumn and winter. In them, boats race not against each other but against the clock (which measures when teams pass the start line and then cross the finish line). The ones with the fastest times win a prize, and there are different categories.
