Sarasota-Bradenton, Florida will be the host of the 2017 World Rowing Championships from the 24th of September till the 1st of October.
The respective national teams have been announced and this year we see four former Hughes Hall students competing, two men in the Great Britain National Team and two men in the US National Team.
Lance Tredell who was also the 2017 president of the Cambridge University Boat Club will be the stroke for the GB Men’s Eight, rowing alongside fellow Olympic Gold Medallist and former Cambridge Blue, Tom Ransley. The USRowing have selected Patrick Eble for the US Men’s Eight and Ben Ruble for the US Men’s Four, who were both in the 2017 Cambridge Blue Boat crew.
It is an exciting year to see so many former members of the boat club and the college, rowing at such a prestigious stage, proudly representing their countries.
On behalf of the Hughes Hall Boat Club and the Hughes Hall College, we wish them the very best and may the best team win!
