With only two entries, this competition is a game of cat and mouse, where Norwich School Boat Club will be wanting to create distance between themselves and Shiplake College and Shiplake wanting to chase them down.
Reflecting on the competition, Shiplake is renowned for its success at all levels but is particularly known for their ability at the longer Head Races. Hence they will be looking to lay down a good time in the run-up to School’s Head a mere 4 weeks away. Norwich, a relative unknown coming into this weekend, much like Shiplake, will be wanting to show the junior scene they’re a force to be reckoned with.
Overall, we can look forward to a fierce competition this weekend, and if I were to take a guess I would assume Shiplake to come out of this duel victorious, although I have certainly been proved wrong before.
