Plymouth College Combined Cadet Force was blessed with a glorious day for its annual rowing race. Held at Jupiter Point, the rowers battled against each other and the clock to lift the prestigious Geoff Fabian Memorial Cup - the race was introduced after the death of Acting Contingent Commander, Commander Geoff Fabian (RN retired), in 2007.
CCF staff member, Bill Andrew, said: "Rowing was one of Geoff's passions and he loved taking the cadets out on the water. Introducing this race seemed a very fitting way for all of us to remember him each year. He was also a stalwart supporter of school rugby so as well as Navy, Army and Air Force cadets, we had teams of rugby players taking part this year as well."
A team of Navy cadets, captained by Jonathan Coyte, were triumphant for the second year in a row. They were presented with the Cup by Plymouth College Headmaster, Dr Simon Wormleighton.
