Several Cantabs crews raced at the Ely Head Race on 3rd November, generating wins in both sweep and sculling categories. At 5km, the event provided some good preparation for crews planning to race on the Tideway in the next few months.
Congratulations to Dave Inman, Ethan Povey, John Cumner and James Lindsay from the Senior Men's squad who won the Open 4x- event, and to the Aquaphobes (Nick Sutcliffe, Simon Ollerenshaw, Neil Sparnon, Lucio Cicolecchia, Matt Garley, Enzo Capone, David Atkin, Dan Sharrock and Yuliia Bykhovets) who won the Band 2 Open 8s event.
Club Captain, Andrew Morley finished third in Open 1x, but was pleased to find that the winner was former Cantabs member, Charlie Palmer, who reached the finals of the Diamond Challenge Sculls at Henley Royal Regatta in 2005 and 2006. Congratulations to Charlie on his win.
