Guernsey rower Erica Bodman aims for GB European berth

Bodman was named a rising star by the Guernsey Sports Commission

Guernsey rower Erica Bodman is aiming to secure a place in the Great Britain squad for next month's European Championships in Bulgaria.

The 23-year-old says she is waiting on who makes the British team at the World Championships later this month.

"They've taken two spares out, and if the spares don't race they'll come into our European group, so that effects what we do," she told BBC Guernsey.

She is hoping for a place in the eight, but could be forced out of the boat.

"If I wasn't in the eight there might be talk of sending me as a racing spare in my single," she said.
