The inauguration of this race coinciding, as it did, with the first visit to the Regatta of Her Royal Highness The Princess Elizabeth (now Her Majesty The Queen), permission was graciously given to name the trophy "The Princess Elizabeth Challenge Cup". The PE (as it is usually abbreviated) is one of only a few races in the Regatta which does not allow composite crews to be entered, and as such each race is a straight competition between one club and another. As the most prestigious race of the schoolboy Rowing year, the event attracts strong competition both from the UK and abroad. The first overseas crew to win the event was Brisbane Boys' College from Queensland , Australia in 1993 . RECENT WINNERS
