Durham Regatta
This weekend kicked off the beginning of the 20/21 regatta season for NUBC racing down the road on the River Wear in preparation for Marlow and BUCS these upcoming weekend.
Even in the heat, it proved to be a successful weekend for NUBC, taking a total of 8 wins over the two days in the Women’s Elite 4x-, Women’s Elite 4+, Women’s Champ 4x-, Women’s Champ 4-, Men’s Champ 4+, Women’s Champ 4+. NUBC also managed to take the Women’s and Men’s Champ 8+ after an unplanned BROTN rematch against Durham in the finals.
Hopefully the winning streak continues into the upcoming weekends.
