# Silver Goblets & Nickalls' Challenge Cup

The Silver Goblets & Nickalls' Challenge Cup is a rowing event for men's coxless pairs at the annual Henley Royal Regatta on the River Thames at Henley-on-Thames in England. It is open to male crews from all eligible rowing clubs. Two clubs may combine to make an entry.

## History

The Silver Goblets was established in 1850, replacing a previous competition the Silver Wherries. In 1895, Tom Nickalls, father of Guy Nickalls and Vivian Nickalls Nickalls presented the Nickalls Challenge Cup to go with the Silver Goblets.
