πŸ‰πŸš£β€β™€οΈ Our first ever Dragon Boat Race! β€οΈπŸ’›

What a day! We had the flying tent, plenty of rain, and all the elements you’d expect from a proper coastal rowing club! πŸ˜‚πŸŒ§οΈπŸ’¨ But we took it all in our stride and had an absolute blast.

With 13 HRC rowers in the boat, we battled our way to 11th place β€” not bad at all for our first ever dragon boat race! πŸ’ͺπŸ”₯

It was fantastic to see so many people interested and getting involved. So many laughs, great team spirit and a brilliant event from start to finish.

A huge thank you to our Vice Captain Kim Webb for organising it all! β€οΈπŸ’›

Bring on the next one! πŸ‰πŸš£β€β™€οΈ

β€οΈπŸ’›β€οΈ Remembering Alan 🚣

Tomorrow, Sunday 23 August, members of Hastings Rowing Club will be down at the club from around 10:30am, with the Ashes boat afloat at 11:00am.

Afterwards, we’ll have a relaxed picnic at the club as a small remembrance of our dear friend Alan.

There’s nothing formal planned β€” just an opportunity for friends, teammates and club members to come together, have something to eat and drink, and share a few memories of Alan.

If you’d like to join us, bring along a picnic and something to drink and come and spend some time with the HRC family. β€οΈπŸ’›β€οΈ

Always remembered, Alan. β€οΈπŸ’›β€οΈπŸš£

We're all set on the beach at Worthing! The boats are rigged, the trailer is unloaded, and we're proudly wearing our new Hastings Rowing Club t-shirts as we get ready for an exciting day of racing.

There's always something special about regatta days – catching up with rowing friends from clubs all along the South Coast, enjoying the fantastic atmosphere, and sharing the passion for our sport. It's brilliant to see the beach buzzing with crews, supporters and volunteers.

Now it's time to put the training into practice.

Ready. Set. RACE! πŸ’ͺ🌊
