In the 1970s, British rowing at the international level emerged from the doldrums of the 1950s and 60s and we started to win medals again! The story of this transformation is the theme of our next Friday supper evening on 3rd February.
Taking us through the period from 1968 to 1980 will be
Mike Sweeney, Chairman of Selectors and Team Manager
Tim Crooks, World and Olympic Silver medallist
Dick Lester, Olympic Silver Medallist
Charlie Wiggin, Olympic Bronze Medallist
The image shows Dick Lester at stroke and Tim Crooks at 6 in the Montreal 1976 Olympic Silver medal crew.
Tickets cost £45 and include a three-course supper and a welcome drink.
The evening starts at 7pm for 7.30pm.
