More details can be found here. Closing Dates: Under 23 - 5:00pm AEST Wednesday 19 September, 2018 Under 21 - 5:00pm AEDST Friday 18 January, 2019 Junior - 5:00pm AEST Monday 8 April, 2019 A common fault in sweep rowing is the lack of rotation of the torso at the release., leading to a restricted and weak outside arm movement, and a poorly executed tap down. Contrast the release positions in the two photos above. It may help to think of the rotation as rowing’s equivalent of the ‘follow through’ which most athletic actions include – think here of the golf or tennis stroke or the football kick. Have a look at the overhead graphic and you’ll see that the shoulder follows the path of the oar handle. New Boat Race Official Training Day Are you interested in becoming a Boat Race Official at ACT Regattas? Rowing ACT will be holding a training session October 14, 10am - 3pm.

Below, our Chief Boat Race Official, Geoff Northam, shares with us why he volunteers as an umpire and encourages others to give it a go: "So why do we volunteer to be umpires? For my colleagues who rowed competitively, there was a strong sense of giving back to the sport. For my part, having no competitive rowing background, it was about providing opportunity for all the young and emerging competitors. It was about being supportive and sharing the joy of their ‘moments’, sometimes forgettable and sometimes of great achievement. Contrary to my low expectation on personal benefits, I find myself continuously receiving benefits from that moment. I have shared in the camaraderie of the greater body of fellow umpires. I have witnessed and shared the heartbreak and enjoyment of countless rowers achieving their goals, knowing that my role was to keep them safe while they competed without being able to see what lay ahead. From that one moment I have gained immeasurable enrichment and opportunity. Volunteering as an umpire is an irresistible excuse to enjoy sports competition at every level, and to get something in return from that experience." The full article can be seen here. Save the Date! The Winter Time Trial Presentation will take place after the Col Panton on 21 October. Keep an eye out for more details. Australian Indoor Rowing Challenge 2018 This year, the Australian Indoor Rowing Challenge will take place on Sunday 28 October 2018 at venues all around Australia.
