Fun at Fishguard!!
The Green Army had a fantastic day at Fishguard League Race on Sunday 10th June. It was hot, hot, hot and the water flat calm – perfect conditions. Our ladies team came first in their category and all teams did really well but it was our junior team that stole the show!! What a performance!! Ellie, Rhys, Dani & Liam (U18 Open) coxed by Captain Leanne Vittle raced 2 miles and only just missed out on being first boat home. They were truly inspiring!! Looking forward to seeing them on the water again soon.
Towy Tri Rivers – 1st in Class!!
A fantastic day was had at the Towy Tri Rivers challenge. Towy were as always super organised and amazingly hospitable, you guys are a real role model for our sport! We entered a mixed vets team: Samantha English, Phil Perkins, Jeff English and Sarah Skinner, coxed by our big buddy Richard James from St Dogmaels. It was a tough row out on an incoming tide. We didn’t give up and powered on, flying on the return trip upriver to the Towy Boathouse. An amazing curry, awesome speech by the chairman at Towy (it was their 40th birthday!), two wins in the raffle and first in class and second Celtic home. Love you guys!! XXX
2018 Training
This years training will be soft training on Tuesdays (we’ll concentrate on technique and spotting dolphins, it’ll be junior night too!) and race training on Thursdays. On a Thursday, we’ll meet whatever the sea is doing and train hard on land if we can’t hit the water. If a crew wants to go out in the week at anytime, just get in touch with the committee to arrange. We’ll start Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6pm until it’s lighter for longer, then push back to a 6.30pm start. If there are no races on a Sunday, training will be at 10am.
New members are always welcome. If you know of anyone who would like to have a go, bring them along – let’s grow the green army this year 🙂!!
