Rowing Squad News

The rowing squad competed at Avon Spring Head in Bath on Saturday the 1st of March. Two coxed quads entered a 1500-meter time trial course. 

Both crews put down times that prove KAA doesn't just want to row, we want to compete! This race has given us the confidence we need to look ahead to this summer's regattas

Whilst the girls fared less well, the boys' time put them second in their event which they were very pleased with. A member of 'Monkton, a local private school who offered their boats for us to borrow for this event was impressed by our standard of rowing 'they looked really sharp' as they went down the course.

Now we look ahead to our next race, the Youth Boat Race (April 5th). This is a unique tournament in which we will race a mixed gender oct against local state schools and Fulham Reach Boat club. We are having some of this year's boat race athletes come down to do a presentation in the lead up to this.
