Seats in the GB Rowing Team for the non-Olympic summer programme will be the target at Caversham over the next two days as 16 rowers representing Scottish Rowing get set to compete against some of the leading rowers from across the country at the GB Rowing Team Senior and Under 23 Trials.
These trials, following hot on the heels of last month’s Olympic Trials, will help to identify rowers for this year’s World Rowing Championships and World Rowing Under 23 Championships (both being held in Rotterdam, the Netherlands - 21-28 August) and the FISU World University Rowing Championships (Poznan, Poland – 2-4 September).
Scotland is well represented at these ‘invite only’ trials with a strong showing from the University of Edinburgh who have had nine rowers invited helping to contribute towards a record total of 11 ‘home based’ athletes still involved at this stage of the assessment process.
Six of the Scottish contingent – Edinburgh University pair Maddie Arlett (Selkirk) and Robyn Hart-Winks (Kirriemuir), Robert Gordon University student Lewis McCue (Aberdeen), Cambridge University’s Melissa Wilson (Edinburgh) and Leander Club duo Cameron Buchan (Falkirk) and Harry Leask (Edinburgh) – took part in the GB Rowing Team Olympic Trials at the same venue last month.
There are six debutants at this stage of the Senior and Under 23 trialling process including 2015 World Junior Champion in the quadruple scull, Gavin Horsburgh, 18, now representing the University of Edinburgh and Robyn Hart-Winks, who missed the 2015 trials due to injury but earlier this year became the World Indoor Champion in the women’s open lightweight category.
