On Saturday, 26th April, our Year 11 rowers competed at the Junior Inter-Regional Regatta, held at the National Water Sports Centre in Nottingham. This national event saw top junior crews from across the UK compete, with our rowers being selected to represent the Eastern Region.

What they achieved was fantastic. The eight of Molly Folbigg, Rosemary McGregor, Kara Farquhar, Zena Breed, Rosie Palmer, Marcie Butler, Becca Lock, Isobel McCarthy, and Ellie McCutcheon raced their time trial, putting them into the A final where they came 6th overall in the country.

Later on in the day, the four of Rosemary McGregor, Kara Farquhar, Zena Breed and Rosie Palmer put in an outstanding performance, winning their time trial and ending the day on a high on the medal podium with a silver medal and second overall in the country.

Their teamwork was evident throughout the competition and we are incredibly proud of their achievements.
