The club is supporting the major events for 2006 /
07 starting with the Thames head races. Ambitious
rowers are encouraged to race at the top national
events. Do you want to raise your performance or win
at top class UK events? To know the standard you have
to race at it. Discuss the possibilities with the
captain or coaches.
In our boathouse there are 50+ singles,
12+ pairs and doubles and 16+ fours and quads. How
many can we get to these heads this year?

out the races come up quick and need early entries
Remember; Tideway distances are misleading due to
the tide and stream. Work off the times.
All entries for these events must
be agreed with the club captain. Do it early.
