Caius Boat Club will have five women’s crews competing in this week’s May Bumps, which begin on Wednesday and conclude on Saturday.

Caius W5, pictured courtesy of CBC, qualified for the event after last Friday’s ‘Getting-on Race’, giving Caius five women’s crews for the first time. Caius is the only college with five female crews competing.

With three men’s crews, Caius will have eight crews altogether in May Bumps, which returns for the first time since June 2019. The event was replaced by the one-off Eights Regatta in June 2021, when five crews won their divisions.

Caius M1 start at Head of the River, after the June 2019 edition, and W1 begin the week in fourth.
