York City Rowing Club Juniors won two events at the Durham Head of the River Race.

The meet had been twice postponed but when it finally took place, Caroline Jones and Charlotte Richer, rowing over the 1,850-metre course, won the women's senior three double sculls in a time of 8 mins 22 secs.

Jones then went on to win the women's senior four single sculls in 9-07.

The club have enjoyed more success with the news that Freya Porteous, Jenny Addison, Sarah Whitwell, Jessica Knowles, Camilla Selby, Kelly Barker and Charlotte Richer have all been invited to take part in trials for the inter-regional championships to be held in Nottingham next month.
