Bensham takes on the River Race!

Huge congratulations!

The Bensham rowing crew completed the annual Great River Race in London. With various setbacks and challenges, it was up to their strong determination and willpower to get over the finish line.

An outstanding effort

A rowing oar unfortunately took a disastrous hit during the first half of the race. Being out of service, the oar was retired and the crew soldiered on – boat unbalanced in operation.  This is very hard to deal with for even the most veteran rowers!

New record set!

The crew managed a very impressive finish time of 3:17:02 which means they have beaten all other Bensham crews in history! The time is now to beat, and future competitors will have their work cut of for them to surpass it!
