Norfolk Sculls

This weekend saw some Deben members heading back to Norwich, this time for the Norfolk Sculls.

Megan Stocker, Neil Cawthorn and Michael Streat, James Parkinson (pictured left) and the Wix-es all took part, some of them competing in two events.

Emilie and Spence (shown below with their pots) won the Mixed IM2 doubles event in a time of 22:14 and Emilie came second in the Women's IM2 single sculls event with a time of 23:33. I'm sure you'll all agree that these are fantastic results and well-deserved considering all the training they have put in since joining the club and learning to row earlier this year. The first of many pots for these two, we hope...

Many thanks also to Ed English who learnt to row at DRC and very kindly sent these pictures to me, even though he now rows at Norwich.
