  • Rob Waddell Discipline: Rowing Specialist Events: Single Scull
    CHAT with a Olympic Education CHAMPION Rob Waddell Discipline: Rowing Specialist events: Single scull Rob Waddell was born in Te Kuiti in 1975 and grew up on a farm in the King Country. He took up rowing while in year ten at Kings College in Auckland. Despite being small and slightly uncoordinated when he started, Rob was determined and soon made it into the school’s top rowing team. Rob also showed all-round ability by playing in his school’s First XV rugby team. As a 17 year old, Rob made the New Zealand junior rowing team. He was asked to try out for the national under-23 team, but declined as he was heading to Japan on a scholarship. In Japan, he learnt Japanese and gained a black belt in judo. Upon his return to New Zealand, he completed an honours degree in management studies at Waikato University, while continuing to row competitively. In 1993, Rob noticed he was having trouble with an irregular heartbeat. He didn’t stop rowing but didn’t want to let his team-mates down during a race. This led him to focus more on single sculling, although he still competed in team events. This change of focus enabled Rob to win the New Zealand single sculls title in 1995. At 20, he was the youngest New Zealand champion ever. In 1996, he won six out of seven national titles. He qualified for the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games and finished seventh in the final. This was the beginning of an exciting rise through the ranks of world rowers.
