The Under-23 World Championships were held in Brest, Belarus between 23-25th July 2010 and Imperial's Jamie Kirkwood, Henry Fieldman and Lottie Howard-Merrill donned GBR vests to represent their country and defend Imperial's honour, which they did in style.

The time has come for ICBC to wave a very sad goodbye to its Head Coach, Steve Trapmore MBE. He joined the club in January 2008, and since then he has brought the club to the forefront of university rowing and leaves it as a high performance centre for British Rowing.

Many rowers have rowed in slightly strangely rigged boats before, be that a bucket rigged four (strokeside, bowside bowside strokeside or vice versa), an eight with a bucket in it somewhere or a bow-rigged eight or four. Very few have been out in a boat quite like the one that ICBC attempted to row one cloudy Bank Holiday Monday morning.

Henley Royal Regatta 2010: Strokeman Jamie Alexander Kirkwood has won the Visitor’s Challenge Cup at Henley Royal Regatta as part of an Imperial, Durham, Leander composite. The lightweight crew were the heroes of the day usurping the heavyweight Leander ‘A’ crew into a headwind. IC qualified an impressive nine crews for the regatta with most losing out to semi-finalists or finalists.

Forty-eight hours after becoming a Henley 2010 winner in the Visitor's Challenge Cup, POD catches up with ICBC's latest wonder boy Jamie Kirkwood. It's quiz night at the Duke's Head and in honour of the win the quiz team is named "Kirkwood Smashed It In The Face!" As the ICBC troops fire-up the brain cells POD joins Kirkwood in the corner. They are joined by Kat Holloway and Lenny Kennedy.
