HOST club Hereford came away with seven wins and six runners-up spots in the Hereford City Jubilee Regatta at Wyeside on Monday.

Although overall entries for this annual event were down, the meeting was very successful with continuous racing from 10am to 6pm over the 1,500-metre course.

Pride of place went to the Hereford elite coxless four of Paul Watkins, Darren Williams, Les Morris and Chris Head who beat Avon County by 3 lengths in the final.

The novice coxed four final was an all-Hereford event with the B crew of Dave Bray, Ollie Partridge, Tim Deacon, Sam Green and cox Chris Green beating their A team colleagues by 1 lengths.

Another all-Hereford final saw Debbie Hammond beating Charlie Hancock in the women's novice sculls, but Hancock made up for this disappointment when she teamed up with Alex Look to win the women's novice double sculls, beating Derby RC by three lengths.

Sharon Colley had a double success when she carried off the women's veteran A and women's senior 2 single sculls.

Chris Green was also a double winner when he teamed up with Tim Fisher to win the junior 14 double sculls to add to his coxing success.
