Kudos for Brisbane & GPS club’s junior contingent who foraged successfully for medals and acquitted themselves so well across the board at the State titles. Though small in numbers with only 10 athletes entered but working with Townsville visitors to build big boats, the squad came home with two gold, one silver and one bronze medal from nine events contested. Congratulations to our medal winners: Saskia Schmidt and Lucinda Staley (two gold, a silver and bronze each), and Amelia Watkins and Zoe Walker (two gold and a silver each). All competitors from the club gained valuable experience racing in finals. The club thanks the coaches Nigel Stubbs, Georgie Pryor, Dave Christmas and Andy Botting for their efforts with our developing young rowers during the summer.
