The Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race sponsored by Xchanging

Chris is in the second year of a three-year degree in Modern History and Politics at Bishop Wadsworth’s School in Salisbury, and didn’t take up rowing until November 2005 after his arrival at Oxford. He rowed for the Pembroke College first eight in the 2006 Summer Eights and in a composite Pembroke-Christ Church boat at Henley. Chris was a member of the Oxford University Boat Club development squad and is the first member of his family to row, although he comes from a sporting family, with his mother sailing to a high level, and his father plays rugby for Bath Academy. Chris originally converted to rowing from rugby in search of a different athletic challenge.
