GBR Match Race Girls

Silver medal at the Delta Lloyd Regatta

Sunday 30th May, 2010

Lucy, Nicky and Ally took silver today at the Delta Lloyd OCR in Medemblik, Holland. After defeating Greece’s Sofia Bekatorou 3–0 in the semi-finals, the GBR Match Race Girls faced Anne-Claire Le Berre of France in a hotly contested final which went to the the full 5 matches.

Having started on the back foot going 0–2 down, the GBR girls fought back using all of their match racing experience and employing some aggressive tactics to bring it back to 2–2. In the last winner-takes-all deciding match Team Macgregor were ahead, but alas it was not to be as Anne-Claire Le Berre picked up some extra breeze to take the win and the overall title. GBR 2nd, Echegoyen (SPA) 3rd, Bekatorou (GRE) 4th.
