"I don't know who decided to put nine people from each college in a boat and see who can go backwards the fastest. But we might as well be the best at it."

Paul Kelly, former head coach

You thought our Summer VIIIs story was over, but this is only the beginning.

We proudly present our fourth boats for the 2025 campaign. Whether tearing up the Isis or the Wolfson Bar tonight, you can count on these crews to deliver.

The future of WCBC is looking strong!

A dramatic week of racing may be over, but there's still time to reveal more crews in the mighty Wolfson fleet!

Our third boats may have plenty of green blood, but it also needs to be ice cold to face off the competition and maintain the enviable position of third boat headship.

Don't be surprised if you see many of these guys tearing up even higher divs next season.

With the top dogs out of the way, let us introduce the loyal hounds which form our second eights.

Don't let those friendly faces fool you - these wolves have seen their fair share of carnage, and are ready to scrap their way through the bowels of division 3 with unparalleled tenacity.

Catch them if you can tomorrow at 15:15 (women) and 15:45 (men), distinguished by their striking purple shirts and visors, or bright yellow bucket hats.

It's time to number off from bow and say hello to the leaders of our wolf pack - our first eights in Summer eights 2025!

These crews are capable of clearing the bumps course at truly frightening speeds, which frees up lots of extra time for pouring through telemetry data or posing for glamorous photo shoots.

You can find them in the lofty heights of women's and men's division 1 (18:15 and 18:45 respectively, 17:15 and 17:45 on Saturday).

And many thanks to @elisabettavacchettophotography for the photos!
