28th July 2013

#HomeInternationalRowing: Ireland had to be content with second places both in crew terms and in overall categories at the Home International Regatta in Nottingham. England had a clean sweep, winning both the senior men’s and women’s categories and the junior men’s and women’s. Ireland senior men and junior women filled the runners-up spots; the senior women finished fourth and the junior men third.

The men’s junior pair of Ryan McKenna and Alex Chadfield from Clonmel won, as did the Ireland junior women’s eight. Twelve Ireland crews finished second in their races.
