This one of the highest positions that Reading has achieved over the last couple of years in this competition and a great result for them. Testament to some awesome sailing by all of them. \u00a0So well done Ben, Bea, Phoebe, Rhys, Oliver, Thomas and Kate !<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Thanks also go to Karen and Hugh for giving up their Saturday to coach the team and for Paul R for his umpiring duties during the event, and of course for Burghfield for laying on such a great day. In total a full round of 66 races were sailed which is quiet an achievement of organisation.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1049 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-1-300x174.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"324\" height=\"188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-1-300x174.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-1-768x446.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-1-600x348.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-1.jpeg 827w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 324px) 100vw, 324px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1050\" src=\"http:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-2-300x203.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"281\" height=\"190\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-2-300x203.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-2-600x405.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/07\/TVC-Photo-2.jpeg 711w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 281px) 100vw, 281px\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seven Youth and Juniors went to Burghfield SC on Saturday to take part in the Thames Valley Challenge which is a team racing event in Fevas, competing against 11 other teams from local sailing clubs, including Burghfield, Upper Thames, Goring, Maidenhead, and Claire&#8217;s Court. \u00a0The weather was fine and sunny and blowing fresh 9-11 mph wind from the East. \u00a0This<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1048","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9D017-gU","jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1048","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1048"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1048\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1051,"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1048\/revisions\/1051"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1048"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1048"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.readingsc.org.uk\/members\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1048"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
