GB vs France Trial Last Sunday
The club took a strong team to the annual trial in Nottingham in which both boys and girls seek selection for boats over one day and 1500m. The boys four, who prepared really well despite exams, finished fifth and 15 seconds off a place. The boys and girls pairs who had two j15’s in, finished in the top half of their respective orders and Molly Dowson in the single found some strong opposition from big clubs from the south – although they will be disappointed, some will get a second chance next year.

Schools Liaison and Learn to Row sessions
Many thanks must go to Holly Young and Steve Holmes for their excellent work on Sundays and Wednesdays as they have had a record number of young people trying rowing for the first time and the numbers are looking very healthy as also the latest crop of graduates go into the main sessions.
Have a good week.
