WEOBLEY High School oarsman Daniel Middleton continued his assault on West Country sculling events with victories at Avon County Rowing Head of the River at Saltford, near Bath.

Middleton, representing Tideway Scullers of London, was, at 12, the youngest competitor in an event which attracted over 100 crews from a wide area.

He comfortably took gold in the morning division and in the afternoon gained further success by 14 seconds in the junior-14 race.

It extended his unbeaten run to four events and, as the Spring races approach, many miles have yet to be travelled between training sessions in London and countrywide competition.
