Our rowing teams headed to Dorney Lake to compete in the prestigious Marlow Regatta. As our final racing event before the Henley Royal Regatta Qualifiers, the stakes were high and the competition was fierce.
We had two exceptional J18 quads representing us on the water:
– T2 S/J 4x: Chester, Laurence, Ben, and Taylor
– Sch/J 2nd 4x: Reuben, James, Connor, and Silas
Both crews put on a fantastic display of endurance and resilience, with each boat significantly improving upon their previous race times.
Facing some of the top talent in the country, our rowers dug deep in their respective finals. The T2 S/J 4x crew battled hard to secure a strong 5th place finish in Final F while the Sch/J 2nd 4x crew pushed through to take 6th place in Final K.
A massive well done to both teams for their hard work, focus and dedication over the weekend. You should be incredibly proud of your performance and keep up this amazing momentum as we look ahead to Henley!
Finally, a special thank you to David Trace for generously giving up his time to help out and support the crews throughout the day.
