Bumps - 26 February - 1 March 1997
Churchill Men's First VIII went up 1, bumping Queens' on day 3 and rowing over all over days in a tight first division. The crew's seventh place finishing position is the highest ever for a Churchill men's crew!Churchill Men's Second VIII were disappointed to row over on days 1 and 2, but made up for it with bumps on Selwyn II and Magdalene II on days 3 and 4 - in the process denying CCAT blades (day 3) and sending them spearing into the bank (day 4).
Churchill Men's Third VIII started well with an opening day bump on Sidney Sussex III, but were bumped the next three days by Hughes Hall I (overbump), Darwin I and Trinity Hall III to finish down 4.
Churchill Men's Fourth VIII were the most successful men's crew, going up 4 and moving up a division with bumps on Robinson III, Wolfson II, Catz III and Jesus IV. Sadly, a row over at the bottom of division 4 on the third day denied the crew their blades, but their finishing position was the highest among College fourth boats.
Churchill Women's First VIII finished where they started at 8th in the first division, bumping Newnham on the first day and being bumped by the blades-winning St Catharine's crew on day 3.
Churchill Women's Second VIII won their blades, accounting for Jesus III, Corpus Christi II, Sidney Sussex II and LMBC III.
