Maidenhead
Junior Regatta
At Maidenhead Junior Regatta, in much finer weather than the previous
regatta at Thames Ditton, the wins continued for Henley Rownig Club.
The men’s J15 squad provided a win in the club quadruples event, with Nick
Gordon, Tom Steindler, Jamie Pilgrim and Jack Chapman, coxed by Cathrine
Willson, beating all comers.
There was also a beginners’ quadruple, of Ben Taverner, Stuart Gray, Seb
Shields and Will Taverner, coxed by Cathrine Willson. They, having only been
out as a crew twice before, managed to win their way into the final,
sculling very competently, where they were narrowly beaten by a strong
Guildford crew.
The women’s J13 squad helped by providing two girls to scull with the boys
in J13 quadruple sculls. This crew with James Mills, Ben Brooks, Holly
Hancock, Jenny Norman with Sian Ralph as cox — the only mixed crew in a
boys’ event — won comfortably against Eton Excelsior in the final by two
lengths having beaten a Maidenhead crew in a previous heat.
