FinTrU is delighted to announce the continued sponsorship of Queen's Rowing Club for a fourth season
THURSDAY 12 NOVEMBER 2020
The partnership sees FinTrU support Queen's Rowing Club in their pursuit for success on the water for another season. FinTrU is committed to supporting the Local Talent at the club achieve their goal in performing at the highest level on the Global Stage.
Jordan Wilson, Queen's Rowing Club Captain, said "Over the last few years, the FinTrU sponsorship has allowed the club to travel further than ever anticipated, including France and Spain for training camps and has allowed us to focus our finances on equipment to make us better and faster."
Despite an abrupt end to last season, and most winter races having been cancelled due to weather, the Novice Ladies defeated Trinity in the annual Trinity Sprints and the Men’s quad won a bronze medal at BUCS Head in Newcastle.
Queen’s had six athletes trialling for the Irish team, and three in the GB U23 system. Two athletes represented Ireland at European U23 Championships in Duisburg, one achieving a bronze medal in coxed four.
FinTrU Founder & CEO, Darragh McCarthy, said "FinTrU has been the proud sponsor of Queen's Rowing Club since 2017 and we are delighted to continue this partnership into 2021. It is a difficult time at the moment for many but we admire the commitment shown by the Rowers and are more than happy to provide support to them in their efforts to achieve success on the global stage."
This season is anticipated to be very successful, with the current athletes being joined in their squads by a new intake from British National Schools Championships, Irish Championships and a Coupe De La Jeunesse medallist.
