SOUTH COAST CHAMPIONSHIPS: our rowing season has officially finished and it ended with a high with some brilliant results. We had 15 rowers and their families head down to Plymouth organised by @plymouth_arc and @wearainsta gathering about 30 other clubs spanning from South East coast to the far end of Cornwall and all of the coastal clubs in between.Our whole rowing season came down to this one major event, held on Friday 5th and Saturday 6th September on the River Plym in river small boats and coastal four and quad boats (due to the expected strong winds on the Saturday).All of our club members were very visible in their bright pink t-shirts, which were a hit with everyone 😄💗We had four crews and small boats race on the Friday and three out on the Saturday. We couldn't have rowed without the help of Deal's quad boat, a river scull from Plymouth and river pair boat from Dart Totnes and we couldn't have rowed on the Saturday without our boats towed by Dover so thank you so much to those clubs for your help.Here are the awesome results:🥈 Men's Novice Sculls (Tom)🥈 Women's novice four (Evie, Lauren, Esme, Matilda)🥉 Men's novice four (James, Sam, Matthew, Will)4th Men's J16 quad (Sam, Matthew, Will, Alex)4th Women's pair (Kirsty & Evie)4th CHAMPS Women's masters40 (Melissa, Marie, Emily, Maria)6th Women's J16 quad (Kirsty, Lauren, Esme, Evie)Thanks to Plymouth for a well organised event and welcoming us to your beautiful district. We're looking forward to training hard for the SCC in Deal next year for the 69th championships 🙌🏼#cara #riverplym #rowingfamily See MoreSee Less
