ON Callum Prosser Impresses at GB Rowing Trials

24 April 2019

ON Callum Prosser (14-16) competed in the GB Rowing Team Senior and U23 Trials, which took place at Caversham last weekend.

Callum made the final of the men’s lightweight final, where the standard of racing was exceptionally high.

A report by sporting website WEROW praised Callum’s performance:

The LM1x was won by Will Fletcher of Leander ahead of an all-star field of Jamie Copus, Zak Lee-Green, Gavin Horsburgh and returning Olympian Pete Chambers. Perhaps the standout performance of the whole weekend came from Callum Prosser of Lea Rowing Club. Prosser, who is new to the single, came third in Saturday’s semi-final and finished sixth in the final. Worth noting that he was the only sculler in the final not to have won a World Championship or Olympic medal.’

An amazing achievement, well done Callum!
