Henley Royal Regatta 2023 wrap up:
COBRA members Rachel Bradley and Molly Curry prequalified for The Princess Grace Challenge Cup at HRR last week
The quad convincingly won against Nottinghamshire County Rowing Association by 2 lengths in the first round
Unfortunately on Friday they were beaten by the senior GB quad who went on to be the eventual winners of the trophy.
Matthew Boyce, rowing in a IV+ for Queen’s University and Jack Edgar, rowing in a 4x- for De Montfort University attended qualifiers for HRR last Friday but unfortunately did not get through to side by side racing.
Well done to all four athletes, your performances do not go unnoticed at such a prestigious event!

Rachel and Molly race their heat of The Princess Grace Challenge Cup at Henley Royal Regatta tomorrow!

COBRA were pleased to host employees from IDS Chartered Accountant’s at the boathouse yesterday afternoon.
IDS purchased a new set of sculling oars for Coleraine GS Rowing Club. We are extremely grateful for their generosity, these oars will be of huge help to the many athletes registered to the rowing club.
