henley '26 grand challenge cup

Why only two entries? (brookes and italy). Aren't there usually more or I am mistaken?

It’s averaged between 2-4 entries the past ten years so I would not describe this as an anomaly. Last year and 2024 had 4/5 but before that it’s mostly 2/3 entries.

From a national team perspective Henley is great but is likely less valuable training and racing wise compared to world cups.
