In a composite MasD 8+ crew with Bridgnorth, Tom Doherty and Richard Nelson won their class at Runcorn by a large margin. In fact they beat all bar 7 crews in the event including 2 IM1 ,2 IM2, 6 IM3, and all 6 other MAS A,B,C,crews.

This composite crew is in training for the Vets Head of The River and will be coxed by our own Jen Clements, so this was a very promising performance for the Tideway next week.

Despite a valiant effort by a very depleted junior squad, they didn’t manage to secure any wins this time and neither did our seniors, however our veteran crews battled the cold and the fog in the morning to secure two wins.

Our Masters IM1 Quad won their category in impressive style at the Monmouth Christmas Head on 7th December Read more

Frank Hamilton, Harry Stirling, Ben Gittus Smith and Denis Bradulin went to a quality Head hosted by Monmouth Rowing Club. In the morning division they all joined forces in a IM1 Quad and impressed onlookers, winning their category in style, beating a strong Bewdley boat in the process.

Then in the afternoon division team mates became competitors as Harry and Frank took on Ben and Denis (as well as three other crews) in the IM1 doubles. Youngsters Harry and Frank managed to hold off Ben and Denis to win by just one second, the Stratford boats again leading all other opposition to win the catagory.

Thanks go out to host club for lending the boys a boat to row in after theirs suffered a broken rigger just minutes before getting on the water.

A great medal haul – 22 for Stratford and 15 for the KES crews on this 2.5km course.

Well done to everyone who competed at Evesham.  There were only a small number of clubs taking part but it was a case of quality over quantity.  There were, frustratingly for the crews, 3 second placings but Isaac Herring of our J15 squad won his single and won the double with Conrad Bird, so well done to both of them.  There was also a win for the J18 crew from KES.
