and so the boats returned to their home ports
on a favourable east going stream around noon.
The dinghy match racing regatta against
Wellington College Sailing Club took place in
mid- June at Horseshoe Lake near College.
This turned out to be a closely fought contest,
with the owsa winning all three races against
the College b team, and then just beating the
College a team by one point in a very close
series of four races. The day was rounded off
with a fine barbecue hosted by wcsc, during
which a King’s Shilling tankard was presented
by the owsa Commodore Sir Julian Berney
[Bd 1969] to the outgoing Captain of Sailing
at College, Harry Martin [Hl 2011] for his
outstanding contribution to the wcsc.
The owsa welcomes all ows — enthusiasm
rather than a lengthy sailing cv is the key
requirement. We are particularly keen to
recruit younger members, and to encourage
this there is no annual subscription for under
25s, and financial assistance is available for
under 25s to take part in the various events
we organise or take part in. Jonathan Hudson

he ow Rifle Club continues
to enjoy great success,
shooting mainly full-bore
at Bisley, although with one
small-bore match against
College (which we lost) in January, and a
clay pigeon day in March. We have only shot
twice this season, firstly against a very strong
Surrey Rifle Club and Oxford University team
which we rather inevitably lost ! We have
just had our full-bore match against College,
and I was very pleased to be able to field a
full team of 8. It is always a close run affair,
and College pipped us by 3 points, with Jamie
Allum the highest College scorer taking
home the Parkinson Cup. The ow highest
scorer was Richard Hebblethwaite [T 1994]
