Trent Juniors Successful Season Opener at Shrewsbury Pengwern Regatta!
What a way to kick off the season! Our junior squad made a brilliant start at their first regatta of the year — racing hard, supporting each other, and racking up an incredible haul of pots, medals, smiles, and even a snapped blade (RIP to the blue half-rigger 💙).
It was a wonderful weekend full of exciting match-ups, including four all-Trent finals, meaning we made the final in every event where we had more than one entry. That’s a serious statement to start the year!
Saturday Highlights:
We finished the day with five fantastic wins and plenty of close calls:
🏆 WJ16 2x – Ania & Madison 🥈 Jo & Caitlin – a thrilling all-Trent final!
🏆 WJ15 1x B1 – Jessica
🏆 WJ14 1x – Megan 🥈 Betty | 🥉 Cecilia – Trent sweep!
🥈 J15 1x – Nathan

🏆 WJ15 4x+ B1 – Leon, Madison, Jo, Jess, Caitlin

🏆 WJ16 2x – Ania & Jo 🥈 Jess & Caitlin – pushing it to the line!
