Junior Pennant comes back to North Sydney<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Last Saturday, for the final time of the season, the 2023\/24 Junior fleet went into battle in Hen and Chicken Bay for the final time. Our Juniors this year have done a tremendous job representing the values of Boat Club. I have never seen a group come through that is better representatives of the mantra \u201cDeeds not Words\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This regatta was a little different from regattas in the past, where our crews were graded into A final or B Final, depending on their performance throughout the season. All our Junior boats were contending in A finals, which in itself is a great testament to the boys and coaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Year 8 Quads raced first and were able to record five 1st place finishes and three 2nd places from their eight starts. This was a brilliant effort, especially with some of the last-minute shuffling that was performed due to a few boys reporting in unwell. Our Year 8 First Quad of Charlie Armati<\/strong>, Lawson Wood<\/strong>, Louis Corcoran<\/strong>, Sam Bull<\/strong> were joined by Harry “Fergo” Ferguson<\/strong> for the final race and kept their Hen and Chicken Bay record intact with a very impressive seven second margin A-final win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Year 9 Quads raced next and were able to record one 1st place, three 2nd places, one 3rd and a 4th from their 6 starts. It was great to see our Year 9 First Quad of Charles Bassingthwaighte<\/strong>, William Reid<\/strong>, Edward McDonald<\/strong>, Ollie Mott<\/strong> and Harry Leahy<\/strong> throwing everything they had at the undefeated Newington crew. I know these boys will be very motivated to get into the big boats next year. Our Year 9 Second Quad of Micah Minchin<\/strong>, Xavier Du Vernet<\/strong>, Harry Fuzes<\/strong>, Oli Koch<\/strong> and Sebastian Cheers<\/strong> continued what has been an amazing Term 1 for this crew and took out the category A final. This boat has gone through this Term undefeated, which is very impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the racing we were joined by Mark and Kate Livingstone and their daughter Sophie to christen the \u201cTom Livingstone\u201d boat. Tom would love the fact that a boat that is named after him is helping the next generation of Shore rowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With this racing over, I am very glad to report that Junior Pennant will finally return to its spiritual home in North Sydney. This year, due to the impressive efforts of the Year 10 VIII\u2019s, Year 9 Quads and the Year 8 Quads, Shore went into the final with a near-impossible to defeat margin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
