WALLINGFORD’S Charles Parry returned with five medals from the World Masters Rowing Championships in Copenhagen.
In the G category (aged 65-70) , Parry achieved successes in both the single and the eight.
The latter win came with clubmates Sean Morris and Colin Cusack, plus former member Tom Bishop and was coxed by Rachael Haycock
Parry and Bishop won both the G and the younger F category double sculls as well as – again with Morris, Cusack and Haycock – the G coxed fours.
The same four just missed out in the G coxless four and quad scull though Morris and Cusack were victorious in the pairs.
They were also a close second in the F section pairs.
Wallingford women had successes in composite crews.
Laura Forrest was in the victorious E coxed four crew steered by clubmate Rachael Haycock – her fifth success in the 11 events she entered.
Alison Boyes rowed in a triumphant category A eight, while Emily Booker steered a winning F coxed four.
