The Gallagher Great Race
University of Waikato vs University of CambridgeThe ninth annual Gallagher Great Race will see the University of Cambridge (UK) challenge the University of Waikato on Sunday 5 September 2010.
This will be the fifth time these two rowing giants have competed against each other since the inaugural event in 2002 and the score is drawn 2 all. Last time they met in 2008 Cambridge won by a scant quarter of a boat length after a mad sprint for home in what has been dubbed 'the best ever' Great Race. This year promises to be a fiercely contested battle for glory over the 3.85km 'against the flow' course for the Harry Mahon Trophy.
The Waikato women will compete for the Bryan Gould Cup against a top Australian university crew.
Feel the excitement of live rowing action along with free entertainment and family fun making the Gallagher Great Race a day for the whole family to enjoy.
