GBR M8+ go to FISU ‘18, Shanghai

We’ve been selected as the Men’s Eight to represent Great Britain at the FISU World University Championships in Shanghai, from the 10-12 August. It’s a massive event, and will be a big stepping stone for athletes to go onto the Olympic Games.

The original cost per athlete is £1700, and the amount we want to raise here is a contribution towards that. The money raised goes directly towards covering flights, accommodation and kit expenses. We all realise that it’s a massive undertaking, and any contribution could make a huge difference for us! We’ll be providing video updates on YouTube, and would love to get people as involved in what we’re doing as possible.

Here’s the team:
George Stewart - Molesey BC/University of Surrey
Rufus Scholefield - University of London
Matt Hnatiw - Oxford Brookes University
James Robson - Newcastle University
Michael Glover - Oxford Brookes University
Jack Gosden-Kaye - Leander Club/University of California, Berkley 
Henry Swarbrick - Oxford Brookes University
James Stanhope - Leander Club/Oxford Brookes University
Harry Brightmore - Oxford Brookes University

If anyone has any questions at all about what we’re up to, please feel free to quiz any of us and we’d be happy to help!

Thanks!
