Seven UQBC rowers were selected to represent Australia after last months national team selection regatta.
Congratulations to:
Jared Bidwell: Open Men’s Quad scull Poznan Poland
Chris Bigg: Open Men’s Lightweight Four Poznan Poland
Angus Morton: U23 Men’s Lightweight Double Scull Racice Czech Republic
Alison Scobbie: U23 Women’s Lightweight Quad Scull Racice Czech Republic
Peta Eddington: U23 Women’s Quad Scull Racice Czech Republic
Lincoln Handley: Coach Men’s Junior Quad Scull Brive France
Jeff Conn: Junior Team Doctor Brive France
This is an impressive result for the club considering the reduced team size for 09 and an almost exclusive selection of Olympic category boats only.
Following up from our performance of last year UQBC was once again able to get more athletes onto the National team in U23/Open (5) than the combined total of all other QLD clubs
