World Cup III Success 

It was a very successful regatta for the Australian Rowing Team at World Cup III in Poznan over the weekend. Australia finished fourth on the medal tally for the final World Cup series regatta, claiming two gold, three silver and two bronze medals. Queensland athletes Maddie Edmunds and Jess Hall won a silver medal in the Womens Quadruple Scull, along with crew mates Kerry Hore and Jennifer Cleary, coached by QAS Head Coach,Tom Westgarth. Queensland legend Sally Kehoe also competed at the regatta in the Womens Double Scull, coming 6th place in the A-Final with partner Genevieve Horton. We are looking forward to watching the ARTeam in Rio, and best wished for their preparations leading into the Olympic Games!

Safety Message

With the recent deluge of rain we have had there is plenty of debris being washed in to our waterways.  Please keep an eye out, and call out to other rowers if you see them heading for a collision with some debris.  Also, where possible, it would be great if coaches in tinnies could pull any debris they come across in to their tinny and take it out at their shed, in an attempt to help clear the rivers.  The tree branches will take a while to become water-logged enough to sink, so if coaches could help out on this that would be much appreciated.

Support Tamar Rowing Club

After the recent wild weather that ravaged the East-Coast of Australia, Tamar Rowing Club was left decimated due to flooding of the Tamar River. Just as Brisbane clubs experienced in 2011, the heartbreaking loss of club facilities takes a huge toll, and the Tamar Rowing Club require assistance from the rowing community. To show your support for the powerhouse Tasmanian rowing club, head to their Australian Sports Federationcampaign page, to donate and learn more about the cause.
