MLC Rowing Regatta – “Together Everyone Achieves More”

Our team motto shone through brightly at the MLC Regatta on Saturday 11 November at Iron Cove, with the Pymble rowing team securing another phenomenal team result. From 33 entries, we achieved 14 Gold medals, 12 Silver medals and 2 Bronze medals. Thank you to all the parents on the balcony cheering on our Pymble rowers.

Seniors

The Senior Squad showed great adaptability and team spirit to secure a first and second place finish in the Schoolgirl Four event, achieving two second place finishes in the 1st and 2nd Eights. Well done Seniors!

Intermediates

The Intermediate Squad won the Year 10 Four event and had another strong showing in the Eight, coming second. Well done Inters!

Juniors

The Junior Squad started the day with three wins out of four in the Quad events, with the 3rd Quad pushing hard to the line achieving a close second. The squad competed in a second round of racing in Doubles and Single Sculls. Well done to Emily Englund (Year 8) who achieved the fastest time of 4:30.85. Well done Juniors!

Learn-to-Row

The Learn-to-Row (LTR) squad began with Double and Single Scull races, with all boats placing 1st or 2nd.  It was a very strong start from our youngest rowers on the team. The squad then combined into Quads for their second races of the day, achieving wins in the 1st and 2nd Quad events, and a hard fought 3rd place finish in the 3rd Quad Event. Well done LTR!

A special mention to Bella Legge-Hughes (Year 7) and Sophie Harris (Year 7) who won three events on the day, rowing up a Year group, as well as their own, to achieve this! Pictured above with the LTR 2nd Quad who also won their event.
