Henley Royal Regatta is the world's most prestigious rowing regatta. For Exeter this is the pinnacle of the season and the main event the club trains for all year.

This year the senior men are aiming to send two eights to the regatta to compete in the Temple Challenge Cup. For the men this would be a phenomenal achievement and a reflection of the fantastic season they have had so far.

However, qualification remains very difficult in this event with the difference between success and failure often being less than a second. In the past the renting of top calibre racing shells has been paramount in ensuring qualification for the club's racing crews.

Therefore, we need your help to ensure that our athletes have the best equipment available in order to qualify and make it as far through the regatta as possible. We are attempting to raise £2000 in order to rent two shells for our 1st and 2nd 8s. Any contribution would be greatly appreciated and would aid our Henley campaigns massively.
