Recent History

Loughborough Lemming 2021

For the first time ever, two UEA teams were competing at a team racing event. The established UEA Yellow team consisted of: Pablo Bertran & Clare Peterson, Patrick Croghan & Sasha Tydeman and Will Pank & Steve Carve. The newly-formed UEA Blue team was made up of: Chloe Harding, Frances Fox, Julia Llinas, Alice Bradford, Lizzie Warren, Walter Keegan and Charlie Overall. In addition, Annushka Stanley and Katie Orchard attended the event as team managers for Yellow and Blue teams respectively.

This was an incredible event for UEA Sailing. Not only did we scoop our first ever major event win, but we also had our best ever participation with two teams representing the club. Massive congratulations to all who came.
