Pretty good regatta for us with 3 medals after only sending 5 boats, even though last year we won 4 medals.

 

LW2X with silver for the second year in a row, really great result for them and hopefully they can take an Olympic quota. It's crazy that Kontou is still just 18 yo!

 

W2- nice to win silver also, Bourmpou winning another European Championships medal after 4 years, she is still young, only 23. Also third year in a row that Anastasiadou wins a European Championships silver, she did it in 2022 in W1X, in 2023 in LW2X, and now in 2024 in W2-, she is still only 22 yo!

 

M1X solid for Ntouskos to win silver again for the third year in a row, Zeidler is too good.

 

M2X finishing 6th is really good, especially since Cholopoulos is just 17 yo! Hopefully they can contend for an Olympic quota, this was a very promising result for them.

 

M2- 15th is disappointing, these two had very good U19/U23 results but it's been a few years now and they still haven't developed into good seniors.

 

 

We won bronze in LM2X last year but didn't send that crew this year, I'm not sure why but hopefully they are okay and will be at the qualification regatta because they are among the main favourites for that quota!

 

Also we did not send W1X or W2X, I guess they are still figuring out the crews for the qualification regatta, or maybe some girls are injured.
