On Sunday the GMSBC Year 8s went to Dorney Lake to compete in the Ball Cup. This is the South of England Junior Championships. For the rowers in Year 8, this was a really successful outing despite being only their second regatta.
The Boys Year 8 Quad, namely Toby Holden, Robert Petrea, Toby Lassen, Thomas Rhodes and cox Flo Braybrooke, won the Gold medal.
The Girls Year 8 Quad of Hope Smith, Hannah Puttick, Lucy Peace, Rebbecca Galbraith and cox Toby Holden won Silver.
Most of the doubles and the Girls B Quad only just missed out on a medal, in what was a large field for their events.
