Saturday 9th April – Junior Inter Regional Championships at Nottingham

Two Crews from Northwich represented the North West at the Inter Regional Championships at Nottingham:

WJ16 Eight

A mixed Northwich RC and Grange School crew represented the North West as a WJ16 Eight after securing a first place at Runcorn in the North West trials. They achieved a great result by achieving a Bronze and were only just pipped for Silver by Thames Upriver in the last 750 Metres.

Another success for the North West ensured that they were able to secure the Victor Ludorum for the Women’s Title.
 

Katie Meehan, Chloe Tully, Alex Walton, Emma Chaplin and Alice Elliott   represented Northwich Rowing Club

J15 Four

An all Northwich Crew secured their place after securing a first place at Runcorn against other regional crews in March. They were able to secure a  Final Place after qualifying in sixth place in the heats and were able to better this is in the final, by finishing in fifth place and just missing fourth by less than one second.

Their result contributed and enabled the North West to achieve 3rd place overall.
