Rowing
With 11 boys in GB teams last summer,
Abingdon maintains its record of having
produced more GB oarsmen over the last
decade than any other school. There were
also two OAs, Max Gander and George
Rossiter in GB teams at the Under 23 World
Championships. Both won bronze medals.
At half term, 18 oarsmen went to Philadelphia
to train on the Schuylkill River and to take part
in the Head of The Charles Regatta where the
VIII came 11th out of 77 crews.
At the Fours Head of the River on the Tideway,
the Junior IV came a strong second to Eton
and the Junior Quad crew came 17th out of 47
crews.
