This event was last held in 2015 and is one of the first long distance sculls events held nationally, preceding Wallingford. It is the first in the northern rowing LDS series so is one of our first chances to survey the competitiveness of the J18 scullers in the country. This year we see a reasonably […]
Such little can be told about crews when it is the start of a new season. With only three entries in this category, it is going to be great race down the course. The fact that all crews are starting close to one another where they can see each other, the winner may know who […]
The pinnacle of any rowers’ career, Henley Royal Regatta is awesome in every sense. This year’s event is another historic competition with the creation of three new events for Open Women adding dozens of exciting races to the already packed schedule. The Fawley Challenge Cup for Junior Quadruple Sculls is set to be one of […]
With the Henley Royal Regatta draw being announced on Thursday 15th June, all crews will be hoping their year of preparation will culminate in the final opportunity for crews to pre-qualify for the Fawley Challenge Cup at Marlow Regatta this weekend. We now know that Claires Court’s ‘triple’ shall not be replicated by Maidenhead this […]
59 scullers will line up to contest Championship singles this year. Amongst them is a host of trialists, emphasising the depth and strength of this field. The crowds will be looking forward to some close racing to determine the winner of this year’s Championship Singles. Tideway Scullers School ‘A’ Laurence Joss can be considered the […]
This year’s Championship Double Sculls is a stacked event. Spectators will have the honour of seeing the country’s top athletes taking hits out of each other all the way down the course. The top four crews at February’s Great Britain Assessment are all racing this weekend, consequently, we’re in for an awesome finale to this […]
This year’s Kingston Cup shall be contested by 18 crews. J16 is often a year that sees a lot of development and change in athletes and a solid season often sets a person up nicely for GB trials the following year. With that being said, this year’s J16 Quads is hotting up to be quite […]
National Schools’ Regatta will be the accumulation of nearly a year of work for each crew. With limited WJ16 events throughout the season it is quite difficult to identify the top crews which will make it even more interesting to see the results of the event. This looks to be a strong category with many […]
National Schools’ Regatta is finally upon us! After a year of preparation every crew is ready to give its best performance at the largest junior regatta. With 12 entries this category is not massive by NSR standards. Saying that, it is certainly a big enough category that there will be fierce racing with entries from […]
The National Schools’ Regatta clearly defines whether your winter’s training has been a waste of time or whether the sacrifices will equate to victory. Regardless of victories prior to this weekend or in races to come, winning at Dorney this weekend is what a crew will be remembered for. Following on from the Schools’ Head […]
The J17 sculls will see 20 athletes contest the event at Dorney. It will be interesting to see which of these scullers will make the step up to Championship Singles at the National Schools’ Regatta in two weeks time, and thus use this event as a springboard to gain useful experience. Maidenhead RC- Rowe […]
With seven entries from four clubs, the junior quad event is looking somewhat sparse. That being said this regatta, only in its second year, does present crews with a reliable speed indicator two weeks before National Schools. Given the challenging conditions reducing racing to just a time trial at Wallingford, the Sculling Regatta could prove […]
