First scouts to sign up for Race to the Marina!
Briana and Caoimhe, our back-to-back Otter Shield champions.
These two have already proven they know how to win. Now they're bringing that form from the pool to the River Trent.
A word of warning to the veteran leaders who think experience counts for something out there... the girls are already in.
