From the first regatta in Bendigo through to our last regatta in Tasmania, the Damascus College Rowing Program has performed far beyond expectation this season! With many exciting races, medal winning performances and personal growth – we a very proud of the achievements of all of our rowers, coaches and staff.
It was the first time in many years that we have sent a crew to the Australian Rowing Championships where our Senior Boys Crew placed 7th in the A Final beating out some extremely competitive crews from all around Australia!
It was also the first time in many years that a Damacus crew won a medal at the Head of the Schoolgirls Regatta – the Intermediate Girls Crew winning a silver medal in the Year 10 Coxed Four Division 1 event!
A big congratulations to Joshua Matheson (2022) for making the Victorian Rowing Team in the Youth Eight. Josh rowed in bow seat of the winning Victorian crew at the recent Australian Rowing Championships Interstate Regatta.
Well done to everyone involved in the Rowing Program! See you again next season.
