Junior rowers impress at February trials in Boston
The first GB Rowing Team junior trials of 2016 took place in Boston, Lincolnshire at the weekend.
There were some impressive performances from the 300 teenage rowers who took to the River Witham for the February Assessment.
The next step on the path to selection for this summer’s international competitions – including the J16 match versus France, the Coupe de la Jeunesse and the World Junior Championships in Rotterdam – is the invitation-only Spring Assessments from March 22-25 in Nottingham.
