Whilst most of the UK are busy getting prepared for the National Schools Regatta, a six-strong team of scullers are travelling to Gravelines in Northern France to the compete at the European Junior Rowing Championships.
Today marked the first day of racing at this year’s Munich International Regatta for the GB junior team, who came up against tough international competition.
Last month saw the announcement of the GB squad for the Munich Junior International Regatta, taking place this weekend the 5th and 6th of May. Munich is the primary test event for the GB junior crews; for most athletes, the only chance they will get to race with potential crewmates before the summer events. We take a look into this year's team for GB.
Last weekend, a group of 51 juniors from across Great Britain raced in the annual GB v France Match which this year took place near Paris. The event was held at the Paris 2024 Olympic Rowing venue, and despite the ongoing construction work (no flushing toilets or running water for some) the trip was certainly memorable.
