Three club members raced at the EUSA Regatta in Amsterdam: Katy Smith (University of Nottingham) in women's heavyweight doubles, Will Howell (Queen's University Belfast) in men's eights, and Ed Griffiths (University of London) in men's lightweight quads.

Oxford City Royal Regatta

Rodrigo Ideus and Anne-Andree Sirois-Argumedo won mixed elite doubles on both days of the regatta.

Coupe de la Jeunesse

Representing Great Britain at the Coupe de la Jeunesse in Hazewinkel, Sarah won silver in the women's eight and bronze in the coxless four.

Henley Town and Visitors

Jack won the final of IM3 singles ahead of scullers from Royal Docks and Globe.

Home International

Racing in the women's pair and eight, Rhona MacCallum represented Scotland iat the Home International Regatta in Cork.

Molesey

Saskia and Ella entered WJ13 and WJ14 2x in a bid to reprise their J12 and J13 victories of the previous year. A large entry of eleven and fifteen crews respectively made this tough, compounded by a race every twenty minutes or so as both were in the same division.
 
They made it through six races to reach both finals in their greatly loved Carl Douglas, defeating  LEH, Ross and Guildford in J13 and Molesey, LEH and Burway in J14. The J14 final came first where they were outgunned by a very good Wallingford crew, one of whom had won gold at Nat Schools. In the J13 final ten minutes later, running on an empty tank, they held on to win, beating Staines by half a length. Eight races in a little over two hours, but a successful morning - and relieved fathers who had doubled them up!
