Dedicated rowers from the Eton Excelsior club stole the show at Nottingham Regatta on Sunday.

The regatta was held on the six-lane championship course at the National Watersports Centre in the city.

Six Eton Excelsior members competed along with the club captain Nigel Hopkins - coming away with some spectacular wins.

Sian Arion won her single race, Kathy Johnson and Alicia Allen won their double, as did Sian Arion and Fiona Brewer.

The last four teamed up to win as a quad in another category.

Additionally, Kathy Johnson and Amy Hewitt competing in a double in the D age category, missing out on another win by a small margin.

Eton Excelsior Club captain Nigel Hopkins also competed in his single scull and as a part of a composite crew with Guildford Rowing Club and the quad won its event too.

Eton Excelsiors’ Masters coach, Paul Franklin, said: “I was really impressed with their handling on the water, despite very difficult weather conditions.

“This is a great start for the regatta season and we have high hopes for the teams when they compete at the British Masters Championships being held in June, once again at Nottingham.”

Next weekend the teams will do further preparation when they race at Peterborough Regatta.

The club is based at Maidenhead Road, Bray.
