The royal couple faced off in a competitive boat race between the twinned town of Cambridge and Heidelberg during day four of their five-day royal tour of Poland and Germany on Thursday. Kate changed out of her yellow Jenny Packham lace dress and beige wedges and into casual blue-and-white striped top, black pants and her go-to Superga sneakers before the race. Will and Kate were both at the helm of their respective boats, attempting to lead their teams to victory across the River Neckar.

The sports-loving couple took part in a dragon boat race across Dalvay Lake during their first royal tour as a married couple in July 2011. William won bragging rights in the royal household — as the race ended with a slight victory and a conciliatory hug for Kate at the finish line.

During that race in April 2014, Kate got the upper hand as she trounced her husband in the contest at Auckland Harbor.
