Rowing - North West Schools Regatta
The North West Schools Regatta was held at Lake Barrington on 29 February and 1 March, with our U13, U14 and U15 girls competing on both days.
The U14 Rowing squad, including Arlina Mullins, Ruby Bedelph, Amelia Doyle and Isla Gerathy enjoyed their first outing at Lake Barrington. They had two races each over the weekend developing their skills and learning how to race. They were up against girls who were in their second or third season, so as beginners, they did well.
The U15 girls; Mia Reardon, Lucy Balfour, Olivia Hart, Kate Steele and Stella Riseley all rowed in the U15/U16 quads. Olivia and Kate, as well as Mia and Lucy, teamed up to row double sculls, while Stella rowed her first race in a single scull. Mia and Lucy also rowed in the U16 single scull. The girls all rowed some great races over the weekend, in beautiful rowing conditions for the most part.
Ursula Nation also had a great weekend, winning her division of the U13 single scull and rowing composite crews with girls from Kingston High and Ogilvie High in a quad and double to achieve some fantastic results.
The next regattas are the Tasmanian Schools State Championships followed by the Head of the River.
