This was a big day for Borth; for the first time in our 10 year history we fielded crews in each event; Seniors, Ladies, Juniors and Mixed.

The weather was difficult for Aberdyfi Rowing Club, but they managed to organise some good racing. The racing was changed to a timed event as we couldn't row out to sea, because of the rough seas, and they also changed the course for each race as the weather conditions changed. Thankyou Aberdyfi for a good day's racing.

The ladies raced first, and produced a very good performance. They came 8th out of 13 teams. This was a particularly good result for a novice crew, as it was Rachel's first race, Kath's second and Pip's third.

The Men raced well too. Although they only came 15th out of 16 their time was pretty good as the racing produced some good times for all the crews.

The mixed crew put in a gutsy performance. They came 14th out of 14, although they were only 20 seconds behind the next crew. The mixed crew were all very tired, having all rowed earlier and again it was an inexperienced crew.

The best performance of the day was provided by the Juniors. Although the race was a very small field, they came 2nd out of 3, the girls rowed to their potential and produced a very good time. They received the U18 Girls Trophy for their efforts, but they were within a very respectable distance to the U18 Boys boat that beat them.
