Members of Folkestone
Rowing Club travelled to the prestigious Eton Rowing Club at Dorney Lake
for the South Coast Championships on 7 September. This is the climax
of the season for rowers from three different associations - West of
England, Hants & Dorset and the Coast Amateur Rowing Association of
which Folkestone is a member. After nearly a year of continuous training,
Folkestone's already crowned Coastal Veterans Champions rowed the race of
their lives. After a slow start they found themselves steadily
moving up the field. And with only 500m left, Folkestone moved into
the lead over Greenbank Falmouth and BTC. Everyone held their breath
as BTC mounted a strong late challenge but the stamina and strength of the
Folkestone crew achieved through their training regime paid off as they
edged ahead to win by half a length. This is Simon & Matt's
third veterans' title and Tim and Steve's second. |
