Junior Sculling Head, Dorney Lake

Two young crews travelled to London on Friday to take part in the Junior Sculling Head race held on Dorney Lake. Luckily the crews had good rowing conditions for the 1500m course and both put in fantastic performances, yet again making the club very proud.

Competing against crews from all over the country the women’s junior 15 crew of Nell Gierke, Charlie Smale, Sadhbh Connor and Joanna Grigg stormed through the field to finish in 20th place out of 71 crews.

The open junior 15 crew of Toby Evans, Charlie Colwill, Jack Berry and Tom Picillo also put in a solid performance and finished up in 40th place out of 63 crews.

A great day of rowing was had by all.
