New Hall Boat Club
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
New Hall Boat Club is the rowing club for members of New Hall College, Cambridge. New Hall is a college for women only. New Hall's early progress was good, taking the headship of the Lent Bumps in 1976, 1978 and 1980. The 1st VIII now are bottom of the 1st division, perilously close to dropping into the 2nd division for the first time. In the May Bumps, initial performance was good, taking the headship in 1977, 1981 and 1984 in the four-oared races, but in 1990, when the start order was re-organised, the New Hall 1st VIII were placed at the bottom of the 1st division and dropped into the 2nd division in 1992. By 1996, New Hall had climbed as high as 10th, but found itself in the 2nd division again by the end of 1998. Once again, the New Hall 1st VIII climbed to 10th by 2002, and now resides in 16th place.

A table showing the position of the 1st women's IV from 1980 until 1989 and the 1st women's VIII from 1990 until the present day.
Note that a new start order was chosen for the women's May Bumps in 1990, to coincide the change from four-oared to eight-oared boats.
