Seniors Qualify at Henley Women's Regatta

Last weekend saw the most anticipated weekend of the year for Twickenham's Senior Women squad as they competed at Henley Women’s Regatta. A few last minute changes to entries because of injury and other commitments meant that Twickenham had our initial 6 entries reduced to 3, but that didn’t take away anything from a fantastic weekend’s racing. The Senior

women raced two quads in the Aspirational 4x as well as a single in the Aspirational

Lwt 1x.


The quad of Abi Thomson, Ellen Tweed, Emily Harrison and Emily O'Connor made it

through the time trial before being drawn against Worcester. This race started fairly

tight before Twickham broke free to win by 3 lengths. On Saturday, they faced

Thames. Again, a tight race the whole way with Twickenham pushing Thames every

stroke, though ultimately Thames managed to get the win.


The quad of Lexi Bothamley-Dakin, Millie Andrew, Ellie Spoerry and Livi Bothamley-

Dakin just missed out on qualifying, coming away ultimately in 26th . This is a fantastic

acheivement in a category including performance academy athletes!


Elizabeth Garbett took on the course in a single, entering the Fiona Dennis Trophy for

Aspirational Lwt singles and came 18 in the time trial, the second fastest non

qualifier. A great race on Elizabeth’s first time at Henley Women’s though surely not

the last.


A huge achievement from all the Twickenham athletes who competed at HWR. This

success is a testament to the hard work of the individuals, the other squad members

who pushed and supported them, and of course, our coaches!
