Rowing Success: Hettie H

In March, Hettie H, a Year 10 student, had an extraordinarily busy week, competing in two of the biggest national rowing events for the Junior category. Hettie participated in both the Schools Head of the River and the Oarsport Junior Sculling Head.

The Schools Head of the River involved over 300 boats time trialling a 7km course on the Thames Tideway. In her age category, Hettie’s team placed third. The very next day, Wednesday 26th March, Hettie was competing at Dorney Lake in the Oarsport Junior Sculling Head over a 2km time trial. This massive event saw over 500 crews competing from all over the UK. In one of the most competitive categories, with over 60 boats racing head to head, Hettie’s quad secured a fantastic second place, earning them a silver medal.

Congratulations to Hettie on both remarkable achievements!
