Henley Royal Regatta – Less than 2 days to go!
The qualifiers are over with most of our crews making the main event.
The exception being two of the JM crews entered in the Fawley Challenge Cup. The A quad had prequalified leaving two crews to attend tough qualifiers involving 44 crews in time trials for 3 places. Sadly neither crew made it through, the closest TSS crew placing a very creditable 3rd fastest non-qual. However great experience for the future.
This year HRR starts on a Tuesday for the first time ever.
TSS has 9 entries in the following 8 events, plus interest in a further 5 composite crews, all listed below in date order.
