Exeter are off to a flying start in the WEARA regatta series

The regatta season is well underway and members of Exeter Rowing Club have already posted some fantastic results at the local WEARA events. At Plymouth regatta earlier this month, there was success across the board with wins from the women, men, masters and juniors. Despite a stormy Friday night, Saturday turned out to be a beautiful day with warm sunshine providing perfect racing conditions. The winners from ERC can be seen in the table below.

On the weekend of 21st/22nd June ERC travelled to Totnes for the second WEARA event of the season. The Saturday competition was dominated by the juniors who secured a number of wins for the club. This really set Exeter Rowing Club up for a successful weekend and by the end of racing the club was already 2 points ahead for the Victor.

Sunday was the day for the seniors to shine with ERC securing wins in all senior 4+ events entered. The women’s novice 4+ many of who had just returned from 2 days of racing at Henley also won their event comfortably. Not to be over shadowed the juniors were still performing well with wins for Tallulah Bowyer and Poppy Bowyer both competing in the single scull and also the junior coxed 4x. (See all Exeter winners below).

With strong performances from all rowers it came as no surprise that Exeter had secured the Victor and a new cox box!! Congratulations to all those who raced it was a real team effort. The next event for Exeter Rowing Club will be Wimbleball Regatta on Saturday 28th June.
