Not a bad result. Theres still plenty of speed to get out of this crew, but it is coming.
31st Jan '04	Newnham Short Course	by ipe
The Men's First VIII won Newnham Short Course convincingly, 11 seconds ahead of second-place Tit Hall and an encouraging 33 seconds ahead of Caius, who they chase in bumps. It was also a good day for the women, who put in an excellent performance to finish third, only 15 seconds behind the current Head boat of Caius.

30th Nov '03	FaT Novices Row Fast	by mjb
Some fast FaT Novice crews raced in the Clare Novices. The 1st women's boat proved themselves the fastest crew around and were very unlucky not to make the final; the second boat won the plate competition. The men's first boat had an unfortunate crabbing incident which led to them encountering the bank whilst comfortably leading CCAT A and the second men dispatched Caius A and Corpus A before falling to a strong Clare A crew. Full results and race reports are available in the Results section. It's all looking rather rosy for Fairbairns.

16th Nov '03	FaT Women Rock	by mjb
In the Winter Head race, the First And Third Ladies IV came first in the 'Student Senior' category and second in ARA S4 behind UEA. The 1st Novices followed this up by being the fastest college novices, coming second to Westminster (who've had a little bit longer rowing) and beating Maggie into 3rd place by 30s. The 2nd and 3rd Novices came 4th and 5th with about 2s separating them. In the men's events, the 1st Novices came second behind Magdalene, whilst the seniors were 4th best Cam college, despite rowing the race with macon blades. Fuller details of the days racing can be found in the results section (1 reply...)
12th Nov '03	Intra-FaT Erg Challenge	by ccsi
The inaugural Intra-Club Ergo challenge took place today with teams from the 3 IVs and an VIII from the novices. The Light IV won with 12:08.6 while the 2nd IV gave spirited opposition with 12:18.3. The pre-race favourites (1st IV) were hampered by the absence of an oarsman despite the efforts of Byrne who volunteered to make up by going 3 times. Special mention should be made for Chris Mycroft who pulled out a spectacular 1:24.7 and for Captain Dan who won the overall average award with 1:27.0 and 1:30.1. (3 replies...)
