Teddington Head

The first race of the season for Tiffin scullers was Teddington head on 6th November where Tiffin swept up 7 wins across the two divisions, setting us up very nicely for a good season. This goes to show how much effort everyone put in over training camp and how it has paid off.

Wins came courtesy of Nathan & Sam in J18 doubles, beating Charles & Josh for the pot. George & Johno raced IM3 double to beat Tiffin associates. J14 double of Harris and Tom won their category by a long way, overtaking 6 crews on the way down. In the singles, Richard won J18 category by over a minute to be the fastest sculler of the day. Ed won his J16 category by a long margin with a very good time clocking under 20 minutes. Both J15 singles posted very respectable times and this race gave Isaac the win over quad companion Jack P. Darcey raced well with a time of 23.40 obviously everyone was scared off as she was the only competitor in her category.

Well done to Will, Dairui and Guy who all posted times within 5 seconds of each other, proving good competition. Just behind them was the J15 girls double and just behind them was Seb and Jack B in their double. Also well done to the other J15 double of Jack H and Elias who came second to an on form Kingston double.

Everyone put in a good performance and set a time to beat in 2 weeks time when they will row the same course at Kingston small boats head.
