Chiswick Regatta









A very big well done to everyone for the effort put in on Saturday at Chiswick. The overall performance was undoubtedly an improvement on last year and bodes well for the rest of the summer season. 
Congratulations to the winners, namely:
  • Eddie (IM3),
  • Richard (J16 1x)
  • J16 quad (Nathan, Jack, Richard & Joel)......
Also a very big well done to all competitors who performed outstandingly well in the heats against some strong opposition. 
Especially:
  • The J17 double of Greg & Arran competing at J18 against some larger than life opposition & coming 2nd
  • The J16 double of Will & Dai Rui who looked very competitive post Bosbaan
  • The novice double of George and Eddie who will be racing at IM3 at Thames Ditton!
  • Johnnie Williams the younger, again putting in a strong performance in his single at J18 whilst still a J17
  • The 3 J15 scullers of Ed Hale, Ben Whitfield and Elliot Salmon who all showed a competitive attitude delt with the tough conditions at the end of the day to perform well in the heats, especially Ed who made it through to the final and came second
  • Last but by no means least, the 2 J14 quads who effectively went out as scratch given illness and put in fight whilst having a big learning experience.
Finaly please thank all parents and supporters who came along to watch - their support was much appreciated.
