And again, a job well done to all paddlers, sweeps, drummers, helpers, coaches, captains for an excellent campaign. All of it culminated with BRD placing in all but one event on the final day. And a special congrats to the Juniors who improved with every race and will be a force to contend with in the future!

This has qualified BRD to attend the 2010 World Club Crew Championships in Macau.

BRD rocked at the States on the weekend. BRD won in every 500m category except one! Almost completed another clean sweep like we did at States in 2006/2007 at Hinze Dam. Well done all BRD members and supporters.
