Well done to all those who raced at Abingdon Head on Sunday.  Everyone performed very well in the last race of the winter season - but special congratulations go to Ben and Haydn who won in their IM1 2- category, to Kathy and Sian who both won in their singles and to Kathy, Sian, Amy and Alicia who also won in their WMas 2x events.  Big thanks to all the EERC Coaching Teams and to the athletes in all squads for a great 2011/12 Head Racing season and very best of luck for a pot-filled summer!
