BEWDLEY Rowing Club members are off to Spain this weekend to row at an international event.
The Masters Women’s squad will compete in the Worlds Rowing Masters Regatta, taking on 20 races over the four days at Lake Banyoles just outside Girona.
A spokesperson from the club wished them luck and said: “We are pleased we are joining up with fellow rowers making up crews from Stourport, Worcester, Peterborough and as far afield as Mill Town Rowing USA.”
The World Rowing Masters Regatta is the largest regatta by the World Rowing Federation.
At the annual event, up to 4,000 participants from all over the world from the age of 27 row for their clubs over a distance of 1,000 meters.
Every three minutes, up to eight boats start at the same time to determine the winning teams in 13 different age groups, each with up to seven boat classes and divided by gender.
