Flying start for our novices

Queens' ErgsQueens' ErgsNo-one is going to forget in a hurry the spectacular efforts of our novice crews at this year's Queens' Ergs.

All crews put in a great effort, everyone giving 110%, and it paid off. NM1 came third overall, second out of college crews, just narrowly missing out to John's in the final after having led most of the way. Fantastic result. NM2 also impressed, being only a second slower than last year's NM1, and coming 6th out of all second boats. NM3 were even closer to last year's NM2 time, with just .1 of a second separating them. There was also an excellent effort from NM4 who beat Robinson in the final seconds.

The women's side also did very well, both crews pulling strong times and finishing 27th and 14th in their divisions, with some strong individual times.

Special mention to stern pair of NM1, both of whose individual times were in the top ten.

Thanks to everyone who came to support. Selwyn had, as always, a very strong presence from the sides, making plenty of noise for our rowers.

Well done to everyone who took part. We now eagerly await Clare Regatta and Fairbairns.
