Nat Schools

Final tally: one gold, two silvers, three further A final places.

Gold for the J16 coxed four (Gianluca, Toby R, Archie and J15 sub Richard c Toby K), who also broke the 20-year-old course record. Silver for the girls’ 4+ ( Katherine, Lola, Alex, Amy c Millie F) and for James M and Matt in boys’ champ pairs. A finals as well for Rowan, Matt, James M and Harry in the Champ 4x; for Aidan, Olli, James C and Patrick in second quads; and for Gianluca, Archie Christian and Toby R who just missed out on a medal in J16 coxless fours, after a storming last 500m saw them move up from last place to 4th . These are all very strong results and should help the older crews to qualify for their events at Henley Womens and Henley Royal.

As usual, the standard of racing at this event was very high; all the Walton crews entered across the three days raced well and produced some very solid results. Pics by AllMarkOne and James Pickering.
