Clare Novices took place on Thursday 27th to Saturday 29th November with three Fitz novice crews entered.

NM1: Sadly due to a few marshalling errors were disqualified from the competition (they did win Emma Sprints though..)

NM2: Entered into the Plate (2nd boats) Division they won the Clare Novices Plate! NM2 beat Emma II in their closest race to kick things off, then Darwin II, FaT III and LMBC II in the final. Strong rowing over both days and they pulled away at the start in each race, so the result was never in doubt in any heat. (Click the hyperlinks to watch their races).

NW1: They lost their first race against Christ’s I but not by far although their bow’s seat had come off at the start so they were rowing with 7!
