Schools Southern Championship

Two RHS sail teams took the long journey to Southampton to compete in the BSDRA Southern Championship for the first time. It was a light wind event putting a premium on good boat handling, calmness under pressure and situational awareness.

The Pink Team of Georgie S, Muiris C-T, Charlotte A, Millie D, Oscar O and Daisy C won five out of their eight races and finished 7th out of 16 teams. 
 
Our Blue Team of Karrie C, Olivia G, James D, Paddy M, Grace P and Sarah D won seven out of their eight races in the round robin qualifying for the semi-final. They took a convincing win against Claires Court School with two races to none putting them through to the final. They closely lost out to Magdalene College in a decider final race after they both won one apiece.
