European Nations Championships - Sunday Competition Day

The 500m class made it three in a row for the Premier Women and provided an opportunity for them to perform their celebration dance routine to the crowded stands. The silver and bronze medallists were happy to join in with the moves along with many of the GB supporters who once again turned out in droves.  The Grand Dragons had provided the warm up act with their bronze medal presentation ceremony.

Saturday Competition Day

The Premier Women struck gold again in the 200m class after storming through their heat. The Grand Dragons were equally impressive in their heat to go through to the major final without the semi. Just 2 thousandths of a second separated them and Ukraine on the line to deny the Grand Dragons gold in their first international outing.

The re-shaped Senior Women secured a convincing second place ahead of the Czechs falling just short of the established German crew. The U18's running almost the same crew in mixed and open  once again coped brilliantly with the much stronger opposition and secured convincing minor final wins against the youngsters from the Netherlands. The Senior Open were a fraction off qualifying from their heat and the same again in the semi in a blanket finish with only the first 2 going through to the major final. They took the honours in their minor final with consistent times throughout the day. The Senior Mixed again met tough opposition but disappointed the home supporters with a win in their final race against the Netherlands.

Will Sunday complete the set for the Premier Women and bring more medals? Watch this space...

Friday Competition Day

The Premier Women once again showed the way with an impressive win in the 2000m racing in Amsterdam. With the benefit of a clear run in the early legs of the race they powered their way through to gain several seconds on the German ladies ahead of them before the final turn. Germany proved to be a good pace setter for the girls as they finished the equivalent of over half a boat length up on Czech Republic and nearly a boat length on Hungary.
