BRAND NEW, Rowing in Britain, Julie Summers, "?Boat races and regattas are mainstays of the British summer - but where did these races originate and how have they become so important a part of our culture? Historian, writer and novice sculler Julie Summers here explains the history of British rowing as a competitive sport from the early nineteenth century to the present day. She then profiles the three most famous rowing events: the Boat Race, rowed on the incoming tide from Putney to Mortlake in spring; Henley Royal Regatta, which takes place on the first weekend of July; and the Olympic Games, which have yielded some of the greatest British Olympians of all time, including Sir Steve Redgrave, Sir Matthew Pinsent and Jack Beresford.

The majority of rowing’s participants pick it up later in life, compared to many other sports, and it is rarely an athlete’s first sport, but is one that often offers them second chances. Institutionally, rowing is also rarely the focus of much attention in the athletic department. Despite such apparent drawbacks however, rowers are as passionate and devoted to their pursuit as any highly paid, well-publicized

A Case Study of Olympic, World and Commonwealth Sculling Champion Peter Antonie
A CASE STUDY OF OLYMPIC, WORLD AND COMMONWEALTH SCULLING CHAMPION PETER ANTONIE A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PART FULFILMENT OF THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS, SPORTS HUMANITIES/MEDIA, DIVISION OF HEALTH, DESIGN AND SCIENCE, UNIVERSITY OF CANBERRA ROBIN POKE AUGUST 2006 ii Abstract This thesis is a biographical case study of Olympic, World and Commonwealth sculling champion Peter Antonie, whose career at the elite or high performance level spanned some 23 years – from 1977 to 2000. The thesis examines the exploits of an oarsman and sculler regarded within his sport as one of Australia’s greatest ever, despite his being considered physically disadvantaged at every phase of his career. Antonie was, most notably, a man of small stature – widely considered a handicap at the level of rowing to which he aspired, and at which he ultimately succeeded. The study also examines what it was, despite those perceived disadvantages, that drove him to excel. The thesis further examines, in thematic form, parallel developments within Australian rowing and sculling in the quarter of a century in which Peter Antonie competed. This was a period during which fundamental changes were seen in Australian sport, notably in the areas of funding and administration, and which saw a transformation from amateur to professional participation at the Olympic, Commonwealth Games and world championships levels. There were also marked changes to high performance rowing as a result of technological advances that produced new types of equipment, and scientific developments that brought new training and selection methodologies. The research was carried out as part of a systematic attempt to examine and investigate Peter Antonie’s reputation, particularly as it compares with his better- known contemporaries, the so-called Oarsome Foursome, and to analyse that reputation in light of the administrative developments in Australian rowing and Australian sport.

STEVEN REDGRAVE: «IL CAMPIONISSIMO» Di Claudio Loreto
STEVEN REDGRAVE: «IL CAMPIONISSIMO» di Claudio Loreto Un unico aggettivo può qualificare appropriatamente l’inglese Stephen (detto Steven) Geoffrey Redgrave: epico. E non soltanto in quanto, fino ad oggi, 1 nessuno nella storia del canottaggio maschile ha mietuto così tanti successi quanto lui (5 ori ed 1 bronzo nei Giochi Olimpici; 12 medaglie - delle quali 9 d’oro - nei Campionati del Mondo), 2 ma anche perché per conquistarli egli ha dovuto lottare, oltreché contro i migliori campioni del remo, con tutt’altro che indifferenti - per un atleta - problemi fisici. Classe 1962, 193 centimetri di altezza per 103 chilogrammi di peso: un colosso che a Los Angeles ’84 - sua prima Olimpiade - centrò subito l’oro con il 4 con .3 Questa la cronaca di quella gara: “La serie delle finali maschili inizia sotto una cappa nebbiosa, al contrario delle giornate precedenti ricche di sole nelle fasi preliminari. Primo equipaggio in gara il 4 con: vince la Gran Bretagna, a secco, quanto a medaglie olimpiche, dalle Olimpiadi del 1948, come ricorda in tribuna stampa Richard Burnell, molto emozionato, che conquistò il titolo nel doppio assieme a Herbeth Busnell (in quell’anno i britannici conquistarono anche la medaglia d’oro del 2 senza, poi più nulla). Il ritmo alla gara viene imposto dagli USA, che tengono la testa per i primi mille metri. Poi scattano i britannici, sulla cui azione si inserisce anche la Nuova Zelanda. L’equipaggio italiano, terzo sino a 500 metri dall’arrivo, non regge all’azione dei neozelandesi, che percorrono l’ultima frazione ad un ritmo forsennato, registrando l’intertempo più basso, 1’34”34…“.

Sports Coaching Through the Ages with an Empirical Study of Predictors of Rowing Coaching Effectiveness
Sports Coaching Through the Ages with an Empirical Study of Predictors of Rowing Coaching Effectiveness Cameron Michael Kiosoglous A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT Paul D. Renard (Chair) Gabriella M. Belli Marcie Boucouvalas Clare D. Klunk Friday, April 5, 2013 Falls Church, Virginia. Keywords Professionalization of sport Sports coaching effectiveness and expertise Sports coaching development Evaluating sport coaching success Reflective practices in sport coaching Sports Coaching Through the Ages with an Empirical Study of Predictors of Rowing Coaching Effectiveness Cameron Kiosoglous Abstract Coaching effectiveness is a result of a coach getting the best out of the people and resources in their environment. For coaches, learning from experience is vital in a role that is a complex, dynamic and multifaceted process of balancing fun and winning where one cannot be sure if results will go according to plan. At the Olympic level, due to commercialization more money is being spent than ever before on developing more professional and effective training systems to maximize athletic performances. Medals won determine how a coach is evaluated and with more nations competition at a higher level, success is becoming even more competitive. More qualified and adaptable coaches are required to cope with the demands of international competition. The literature has been extensively examined based on the research question: to what extent is coaching success predicted by a coaches’ ability to self-reflect on past experiences? The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that if coaches who are highly self- reflective and have successful athletic and coaching experiences would be more likely to have future coaching success than those who either were not self-reflective or had less success in the past.
