A strong Wolfson crew earned 5th place in the women’s IM2 division of Quintin Head.
With so many keen rowers in this year’s senior squads, Wolfson decided to end a long term of intense training with a fun day out racing at one of the most popular pre-Christmas head races.
The day of Fours’ Head did not start great. It was bucketing rain, cold and miserable.

City Bumps started with an early-morning briefing in the packed bar at CORC, followed by thick snow showers that dumped lots of cold, wet flake all over everyone. The weather improved at times over the day, sometimes raining, other times…
First boat Wolfson’s top boat had a pretty boring, solid row- which is about all you could ask for in a Tideway Head. After a relatively uneventful marshalling, Wolfson set off in rather difficult conditions at a solid race pace,…
