#FixtureSeries 2 Fixture - CUBC Women vs Leander

This weekend's FixtureSeries continues with Cambridge Women facing off against long-time competitor Leander on Sunday 6th March. Leander was previously bested by Oxford Women in the first fixture series, so this weekend we will see if both Boat Race crews can hold their own against those in pink. Both Cambridge Women's crews are well versed with the Championship Course this year, and each only have one race remaining after this weekend as the 2022 Boat Race is now less than a month away!

The Championship Course runs from Putney to Mortlake in a spectacular 4.17 mile race with advantages and disadvantage at each turn for the Surrey (South) and Middlesex (North) sides.

To Watch The Race

CUBC Women's President Bronya Sykes spoke about this weekend's fixture saying "we’re looking forward to our second fixture this weekend against Leander and it's great for the crews to get some match racing experience on the Tideway. We are using these opportunities to practice elements of our race plan and learn how to get the most out of each other when racing some of the top crews in the country."
