We’re pleased to share that the memorial bench is now in place along the River Wansbeck, in memory of Eric Shiel 💚

A huge thank you to Ashington Town Council for all of their help and support in making this possible, and to everyone who has donated to our fundraising appeal and supported us along the way.

It means so much to have a lasting tribute to Eric where he spent so many hours coaching our junior rowers.

Forever remembered by the river he loved 💚🤍

TYNE LDS & SMALL BOATS HEAD!

A cold start to the day, but that didn’t stop our rowers putting in some excellent performances across both events!

A special shout-out to Harry and Matty who were the fastest single scull performances in the LDS and SBH respectively! 🔥👏

With Berwick sadly cancelled last weekend, it’s now onto our very own Wansbeck Small Boats Head this weekend! 💚🤍

We can’t wait to see everyone there for a brilliant day of racing! 🚣‍♀️🏆

A busy day of racing for Cambois last Saturday, with our rowers taking on both the Tees Long Distance Sculls in the morning and the Tees Small Boats Head in the afternoon!

Racing over a 5km course in blustery conditions, there were some great performances across senior and junior squad throughout the day! 💪

A huge well done to all our rowers and thank you to our coaches and supporters for another great day of racing! 💚🤍

What a way to finish the Sunday League season! A huge well done to our women’s team, Rowing Thunder, who have finished JOINT 1ST OVERALL! 🥇

Finishing on 37 points, level at the top with Tyne Flies, is an amazing achievement and something everyone should be so proud of! 👏

A special shout out to the amazing Elspeth, who coxed the team for the final. Thank you for helping finish the season in style!

Our Open team, Splashington Dashers, also finished the season in a fantastic 3rd place. Well done to everyone who has been part of both teams throughout the season!

Our seniors were also racing at the first event in the LDS series at South Hylton Long Distance Sculls, with Paul taking the win in the Op MasHI 1x category. Well done to Paul and everyone else who raced! 🏅

LAST WEEKENDS UPDATE!

A slightly different weekend of racing for Cambois as the summer regatta season begins to wind down 💚🤍

On Saturday, our juniors headed to Tyne Regatta for a relaxed end-of-season day of racing. A great opportunity to enjoy some time on the water, race different combinations and round off a brilliant season 👏

On Sunday, two Cambois crews took on the Great Tyne Row, a 25km challenge along the Tyne, while also using the opportunity to raise funds for the club! 💪

🚣‍♀️ Full Steam Ahead – 10th overall
🚣‍♂️ Puffing Blades – 11th overall

Incredibly, just one second separated our two crews after more than two hours of rowing! 🔥

A huge well done to both crews and thank you to everyone who has supported their fundraising so far. There's still time to donate. Link is in the comments 💚

Another great weekend for Cambois and a fantastic way to start bringing a busy summer of racing to a close! 💚🤍
