Hereford Regatta results

Posted on August 19, 2011 | Filed under Rowing

This weekend (6-7 August 2011) saw Evesham Rowing Club’s senior squad return to Hereford Rowing Club’s annual regatta for the first time in many years.Six members of the squad brought home pots. On the Saturday the first win came from the IM2 double scull of Josh Sexton and Henry House beating opposition from Ross in fine style to win themselves a very nice fine china pot each.

The next win came from Chloe Farrar in the women’s novice single sculls. She had a straight final against Hereford and rowed beautifully down the course to get her fine china goblet.

The mixed IM1 double sculls was definitely going to be an Evesham win, with two crews reaching the final. Zara Cottrill and Dan Walker raced against Debbie Staite and Josh Rogers in a close race seeing Cottrill and Walker coming out victorious.

The Sunday proved another good day for Evesham, the first win coming from the IM2 double scull. Sexton teamed up with Walker to race against City of Bristol. The Evesham duo took their opportunity and won their second pots of the weekend.

Next up it was Staite’s turn to have another go at winning after her loss on Saturday. She against a lady from Ross Rowing Club showing great determination to gain herself a well deserved goblet.

The last win of the weekend was a second win for Farrar in the womens novice single sculls. This time however she collect her novice point meaning that she earned herself a well deserved swim in the river to go along with her goblet.
