π£ WEEKEND RACES! π£
π£ METROPOLITAN REGATTA π£
Well done to our two senior crews who competed at Met Regatta. Maddy, Frankie, Leanna & Iffy raced on Saturday in the W4x Championships and Robin, Matt, Sean and Tom in the Op 4- Club on Sunday.
Both boats raced well amongst some incredibly strong competition. Well done to the seniors for all the hard work they are putting in to be able to compete at such high levels. And of course to their coach Richard.
π£TRENTHAM REGATTA π£
As always, the club had a great day at Trentham Regatta on Sunday. We always send plenty of crews and this year was no exception!
With 36 crews, from J13s to Masters F, entered into 30 events, we enjoyed 12 wins!
Our amazing juniors also won the Victor Ludorum Cup (along with Β£500 for the club!) which is awarded to the most successful junior club!
But even more importantly stay than that, this was another opportunity for our members to show what a great team we are. With everyone helping and supporting each other.
So shout out to EVERYONE who attended, competed and supported! πππ

For getting our juniors to training week in, week out as well as to the event and pitching in with loading, rigging, carrying and fetching!
OUR FIRST TIME RACERS
Itβs always quite overwhelming to race for the first time and some of our younger juniors were doing just that yesterday, and we were so proud of them! And lovely to see our older juniors helping them out.
Well done again to everyone who contributed to a great event! ππ
