Our rowers all appreciate the support that is provided by our Friends at the finish point of the racing and we encourage you to go onto the raised lawn overlooking the course where you can show your appreciation of the athletes’ endeavours.
There is live streaming of the racing adjacent to the clubhouse, so that you can watch what is going on further up the course, ready to sprint to the finish line as the rowers near the Enclosure. We will also ensure that regular updates on the results and draw are available.
