Gold at the British Rowing Masters Championships

Leeds Rowing Club came away with gold yet again at the British Rowing Masters Championships at the National Water Sports Centre in Nottingham on Saturday 11 and Sunday 12 June.

In previous years our women’s masters rowers have focused primarily on sculling but this year made the switch to sweep rowing for this years British Rowing Masters Championships.

On the Saturday our Women’s Masters C Non-Championship Eight won gold by a thrilling 0.03 of a second!

British Rowing described it as the race of the day on the Saturday with the Leeds eight taking the early lead and holding off stiff competition from the other crews right to the line.

Our Women’s Masters Non-Championship Coxed Four followed this up with a 2nd place in their event later in the day.

Sunday saw our masters women switch to sculling with entries in Women’s Masters A Non-Championship Double Sculls and Women’s Masters C Non-Championship Quad Sculls.

Well done to all!
