It was a dominant weekend by the GB female sweep team winning medals across all but one category. Congratulations once again to Lara on a fantastic performance and for representing GB on an international stage!

Meanwhile, back in Blighty at the Wallingford Regatta, six Godolphin Crews raced down the 2k lake at Eton-Dorney. The blustery crosswind conditions proved to be a good testing ground for the National Schools Regatta, and all crews gained valuable experience in multi-lane regatta racing. All of the rowers showcased good resilience in the conditions, with some great rowing setting them up for the final few weeks push into National Schools.
