Pressbox (Press Release) -
27 September 2007: Zen Internet is supporting Rochdale twins, Ruth and Lucy Walczak in their bid to be part of an Olympic rowing team. The girls needed funds to buy a new double scull racing boat for training, and following the sponsorship from the Rochdale based company to help secure this, the boat was named Zen.
The Olympic dream is becoming closer to reality with each success the girls have at both national and international events. The twins, who are based at Hollingworth Lake Rowing Club, are part of the under 23 GB squad and have won multiple gold medals between them from the World Junior Championship 2006 for Lucy and the European Championship for Ruth that same year.
With the girls’ renowned skill, the boat looks set to have a reputation for speed, reliability and winning awards, just like its namesake!
Richard Tang, Managing Director of Zen Internet commented:
"Ruth and Lucy have a tremendous challenge ahead of them to make the Olympic rowing team and then hopefully to bring home an Olympic gold medal. I'm very happy that we have been able to help them in their quest."
