In late October, Lea RC and Thames RC took 16 juniors to Weybridge to compete in the small boats head (formally known as the Silver Sculls). The Lea RC came away with two wins: Ruth Courtney winning the WJ16 1x and Lottie Hudson winning the WJ18 1x. These were coupled with some other good results from the other squad members. In particular, Liam Downs sculled the third fastest junior single of the day.
One more mention must go to the girls who represented their club in their first ever race in the WJ14 4x+ (Ellie Bailey, Katie Jessop, Hannah Peacock, Manya Eversley and Elizabeth Johnson) and in the WJ16 2x (Frances Cusack and Katie Wingrove) both crews finding out firsthand how long head races actually are!
Well done to all that competed.
