Top effort Old Collegians! Lest we forget.

21.01.2022 In these dry rowing times when river rowing doesn't exist and ergo sessions abound, we thought we should head back down memory lane to last years 'Head of the Yarra' and look in awe at our White and Green BBC Old Collegian Eights racing in Open D! This was our fourth Head of the Yarra. Many more to come. If you are thinking about getting back in the boat or just want to get fit using the rowing ergo as your weapon of choice- do shout out and let us know!
