Summer rowing

Why is it so difficult to get crews out to all those lovely summer regattas? Just when the weather is good and the events so numerous it seems that all the squads have summer holidays.

It looks like the highlight of the summer will be Warrington Regatta. WE might manage a mixed double for that!

Matt Langridge Wins Elusive Senior Henley Medal


Good to see Matt Langridge winning in style in the Steward's this weekend at Henley RR. It's 10 year ago that he won in the Fawley as a Junior.

This is him celebrating in the Champagne bar after the big win! You can just make out Doug Pickup in the background on the left in the cool shades!

Other NW heroes were Agecroft RC who won the Britannia and Richard Edginton from Warrington who was in the Steward's with Matt.

Young hopefuls from the Grange School Rowing Club competed in the Fawley this year - a crew of J16's who can come back for 2 more years.
