Previously the crews had no sponsorship and were self funded .

The reserves race takes place on the same day as the main race . The Oxford men's reserve crew is called Isis (after the Isis, a section of the River Thames which passes through Oxford), and the Cambridge reserve men's crew is called Goldie (the name comes from rower and Boat Club president John Goldie, 1849--1896, after whom the Goldie Boathouse is named). The women's reserve crews are Osiris (Oxford) and Blondie (Cambridge). </P> <P> The Henley Boat Races, usually held a week before the Boat Race, host the lightweight men's and women's races and their reserve races . There is also an intercollegiate men's and women's race . </P>
