Thames members Elise Laverick, Alison Knowles and Beth Rodford have all progressed to the finals at the Beijing Olympic regatta as part of the Great Britain team.  Elise will race with Anna Bebington in the women's double scull on Saturday, while Ali and Beth will be in the women's eight final on Sunday.

On Saturday and Sunday mornings, the TV will be on at the clubhouse, the bar will be open, Pauline’s flapjacks will be on sale and it would be great to see a good crowd of members cheer the crews on!

We wish all three the very best of luck!
