The Club's Results

Having heard they were to face NW2, Pembroke NW3 hastened to scratch their entry, allowing our girls unimpeded progress into the semi-final. (J. Armstrong)

The quality of rowing and the balance off the easy to the start did well to intimidate Pembroke NW2 before the race. This was evident as FaT NW2 took 3/4 of a length by the stride. The girls settled well holding off Pembroke, but the pace was perhaps too high. Cracks started to show and whilst the girls fought valiantly to stay ahead, Pembroke managed to pull them back and break through. Many thanks are due to the numerous subs we needed over the weekend; for some of them this was their first race in a boat and without them we wouldn't have been nearly as competitive. (Tom)
