Thursday of 8^th Week (11^th March) will see Balliol running the first ‘Spring 2^nds Regatta’, an event open only to boats in lower divisions of the bumps chart, with the aim of enriching the experience of rowing for those who may not otherwise get to compete in external regattas – and of improving collegiate rowing throughout Oxford. As with all plans for rowing in Hilary, we are at the mercy of the weather, but if high stream and winds force the cancellation of another Torpids this year, Spring 2^nds will be the only intercollegiate competition on the calendar this term!
