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...) | ||
10th Nov '03 | Intra-FaT Erg Challenge | by ccsi |
4 Teams comprising the Light IV, 1st IV, 2nd IV and four from this year's novices will race in a format similar to Queen's Ergo competition. Each team is to complete 8 * 500m so each competitor must race twice. I reckon it will be bloody close... (9 replies...) | ||
6th Nov '03 | Uni IVs | by djh |
The second coxed IV took out the second division of Uni IVs in some style this afternoon. The winning margin was approximately 14.5s. It looked a very comfortable and relaxed row with a good push for the line, but they were never really stretched and always looked in command. A good and well deserved result for a good crew.

5th Nov '03 | Queens' Ergs | by IPE |
Congratulations to the novices taking part in Queens' ergs, and due credit to the lbcs. The novice women produced a dominant display from start to finish to win the event, just reward for their hard work this term. More details to follow shortly in the Results section. | ||
4th Nov '03 | University IVs | by mcp |
The club's men's IVs have suffered disappointment this afternoon, with the 1st (coxless), 2nd and 4th IVs all losing to their opponents in the University IVs. More details are sure to follow under Results in due course. The women's IV was knocked out yesterday, but the men's 3rd IV remain strong contenders in the lower coxed IVs event and will race tomorrow at about 2.50pm. Meanwhile, there is happier news from Queens' - the news is that the 1st novice women's squad have beaten all the other crews in their heat by a clear 24 seconds... fingers crossed for the final! It's due to run at 10pm. | ||
