Today we remember and celebrate Ted Shergold on what would have been his 100th birthday.

Ted gave so much to BTC Rowing Club and the wider rowing community over many years, serving as BTC Club President from 1998–2022 and as Hants & Dorset President from 1987–1988.

His dedication, leadership and passion for the sport left a lasting mark on the club and everyone who knew him.

A true gentleman of rowing, fondly remembered today and always πŸ’™πŸ€πŸ’™
