GOLD AT U23 WORLD CHAMPS

E-mail Print PDF

Gold was the colour that Michelle Vezie took home as a member of the winning GB Women's Eight at the U23 World Championships held last week in Racice, Czech Republic.  The crew led from the start and held off a strong challenge from the US eight (US has won the last 2 world Champs).  This is the first time a British Women's Eight has won a World Championship.  

Further Molesey participation was from Mo Sbihi and James Foad in the Men's Pair who came 2nd in the B final and Ruth Walczak who came 5th in the Women's Coxless four.  

Michelle has now headed off to Briesach to train with the Senior Women's eight for the World Championships. 

Congratulations to all the Molesey members!
