Whilst most of sports in the Northwest were affected by the wintry conditions, the Northwich Rowers braved the conditions and took to the docks of Wallasey to compete in a Head time trials at the Liverpool Victoria Club.
The race took place over two legs of 1,300 metres with the junior crews having the best of the day with the J15s Girls Quad of Katie Meehan(S), Beth Chaplin, Ashleen Hudson, Olivia Oakes coxed by Sam Over winning the pennant by 16 seconds over Warrington , Liverpool and Chester
After a quick break and a warming drink, Sam Over found herself back in the boat coxing the boys J15’s Eight to victory in the Novice class. Yet another significant success as this was the first race the boys had come together to form an Eight rather than sculling, beating a University Boat by 6 seconds as well as other senior boats from Chester and Warrington. The boys lined up as Liam Adamson (S), Tom Asteriades, Alex Murphy, Zak Trigg, Ryan Gamble, Joe Ronald, Nathan Jump and Craig Milne.
A great close to the year with the club increasing their successes further to end the racing for 2010 and with such a healthy crop of Juniors, 2011 bodes well.
