A season's worth of training and hard work has paid off for City's oarsmen and oarswomen at the 8th Hong Kong Universities Rowing Championships 2002.

The CityU rowing teams won championships in the Women's Coxed Eight and Men's Single Scull Races, as well as first runners-up in Women's Coxless Four and Women's Double Sculls Races. CityU also ranked among the top three in the overall championships.

"Determination, perseverance and teamwork are keys to success in the rowing competition," said Mr Chan Yu-kit, Chairman of the University rowing club.
