📣 British Masters Crew Announcement

Our Bristol Masters squad are heading to Nottingham this weekend for the British Rowing Masters Championship 2026. The Bristol rowers have teamed up with some fantastic regional clubs to put out two highly competitive composite crews.

A big shoutout to everyone joining forces with us from City of Bristol RC, Bideford Reds, Wimbleball, and Greenbank Falmouth RC.

Crew Line Up:

🟢 Masters F8+: This is the same crew that put in a solid performance at Vets Head earlier this year, but with a slight twist, Kate Millar is stepping into the coxing seat to steer them down the course.

🟢 Masters E4+: Another great combination of regional speed and experience ready to take on the 1k sprint.

Best of luck to everyone racing over the weekend. We'll see you on the water!
