What a brilliant day at the final Jurassic League fixture and what an excellent season it's been for the reds. Small in numbers but big in heart and we showed we can put up heck of a fight. 💪🔴

Some vital points on the final day meant we finished 3rd overall in the Jurassic League. Yes 3rd! What a result!

We're all super proud of every member that's rowed, coxed, towed or supported us in other ways.

Thank you Langstone Pilot Gig Club for hosting a thoroughly enjoyable regatta and big congratulations to for winning the league. Well deserved 👏

It was a scorcher at Swanage yesterday for the 3rd Jurassic League fixture of the season. 🥵

The reds showed a lot of character and really demonstrated the importance of teamwork because despite depleted numbers and intense heat throughout the day, everyone still battled hard on the water, rowed multiple times (filling in seats where needed) and overall ensured spirits were high all day.

Thank you Swanage Sea Rowing Club for putting on a brilliant weekend
