Four pennants at Bedford Spring Head

By |2023-04-03T15:26:24+00:00April 3rd, 2023|Captain's Blog, Racing, Senior women|

  James took a trailer of smaller boats up to Bedford yesterday to race through the many bridges there. The format of the event, with multiple divisions over a relatively short course, allowed for lots of doubling up and the girls will have known the bridges well by the end of the day.   Lots of excellent results - too many to list here but the 4x of Rebecca, Katy B, Jen and Jade won Band 1 4x, Fran and Katie B won Band 2 2x, Katie R and Sophie LW won Band 3 2x and Katy B and Jen [...]

Many thanks to all the club members who helped out over the weekend - especially the launch drivers and umpires without who these events could [...]

The senior girls went north on Saturday to enjoy the tranquil waters of the River Nene at Peterborough. Flat tyres on the trailer and a truck reluctant to start made for some challenges for James - thank you Kevin and Paul for helping out here - and who had a 14 hour day out from the club. Luckily the results made the trip worthwhile. Division one over the shorter course saw Barbara and Victoria racing in Women’s Masters and Women’s Band 2 1x respectively and Katy B and Jen in Women’s 2x - but for time only as the sole [...]
