CHAIRMAN’S OPENING REMARKS The Chairman welcomed Council members and recorded her thanks to the Worshipful Company of Cutlers for their hospitality. Mrs Ellis said she had attended a meeting at Dorney Lake on 11th June. It was an extremely muddy site at the moment however she felt sure that the facilities would be fantastic. The spectator stands were very high and she advised members with tickets to allow good time to locate and reach their seats. Rowing’s ‘Team GB’ had been announced by the BOA on 6th June, and during the run up to that British Rowing had received one athlete appeal. The BOA was currently dealing with 17 appeals across other sports. Council remembered in silence members of the rowing community who had died since the last meeting; George Moody who had served as a Divisional Representative for 23 years, West Midlands Regional Chairman and Henley Steward, Dr. Helen Patterson – Champion of the Thames, Rolls Pollard – Chairman Peterborough City RC and recipient of the ARA Medal of Honour, Rebecca Chamberlin of Clare College. Richard du Parcq was welcomed, attending as a substitute for N. Jackson, Division 18. 2 2. APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE Noted and recorded as above. 3. DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST Non pecuniary Mrs. D. M.

MINUTES The minutes of the meeting held on Saturday 14th March 2012 were agreed to be an accurate record and signed, subject to the following amendments: Miss K. O’Sullivan to be added to Declarations of Interest, pecuniary Trinity Hall John Russell, Putney Town. 5. MATTERS ARISING a) CEO Appointment: Kate Burt has been appointed as the new Chief Executive Officer, taking up her role on Monday 18th June. She has in the intervening months been taking on board a good deal background information, such as the draft Whole Sport Plan. The interview process had gone very well with seven strong candidates shortlisted for the post. Six were interviewed and the panel were very pleased to be able to offer the role to Kate Burt who had the marketing, branding and commercial experience the sport was seeking. The interview panel comprised Mike Baldwin, Rod Murray, Mrs Ellis and Liz Nicholl from funding partner, UK Sport. A representative from Odgers was also in attendance. b) Constitutional Changes: The Chairman explained that it was necessary to amend Articles 17 and 18 to include a clause (d) that explains how the regional representatives will become members of this Council. The purpose is to avoid a situation where all representatives retire in the same year and to do this fairly. This would need Council’s approval in order to go forward to the AGM. Regions were currently arranging their elections and this would simply establish the length of terms of office before representatives retired. With the correction of one typographical error clause d was approved to go to the AGM in September. The new Model Regional Constitution has been developed in parallel to ensure consistency with the amended Articles 17 and 18. ELECTION OF REGIONAL CHAIRMEN Article 17 (a) Each candidate for Regional Chairman must be a member of a Club which is an Affiliated Member from the region that the Regional Chairman is to represent and a Registered Individual. The Committee of one of the Affiliated Members Member Clubs from that Region must nominate the candidate and another such Affiliated Member Club must second the nomination. (b) The names and addresses of the Regional Chairmen, the name of a Club, being an Affiliated Member of which they are a member, and the Region which they are elected to represent shall be delivered in writing to the Company Secretary not later than 31st July in 2012, and thereafter not later than 30th November in each year, commencing 30th November 2013. (c) The Company Secretary shall report the results of elections to the next meeting of the Council, and shall also send them to the Affiliated Members of the Region concerned. (d) On the coming into force of these Articles all Regional Chairmen shall be elected at an EGM of their Regions, in accordance with paragraph 17(a) above, one third of whom (to be determined by 3 British Rowing drawing names at random at an Open Council Meeting) will be required to face re- election by 30th November 2013, a further third so drawn by 30th November 2014 with the final third by 30th November 2015. Those re-elected in years 2013, 2014 and 2015 will be eligible to serve a further three year period on Council and then must stand down from Council for a period of at least one year. ELECTION OF REGIONAL REPRESENTATIVES Article 18 (a) Each candidate for Regional Representative must be a member of a Club which is an Affiliated Member from the region that the Regional Representative is to represent and a Registered Individual. Those Regions entitled to Regional Representatives shall determine how these Representatives are elected by the Affiliated Members in the Region. (b) The names and address of the Regional Representatives, the name of a Club, being an Affiliated Member of which they are a member, and the Region which they are elected to represent shall be delivered in writing to the Company Secretary not later than 31st July in 2012, and thereafter not later than the 30th November in each year commencing 30th November 2013. (c) The Company Secretary shall report the results of elections to the next meeting of the Council, and shall also send them to the Affiliated Members of the Region concerned. (d) On the coming into force of these Articles all Regional Representatives shall be elected at an EGM of their Regions, in accordance with paragraph 18 (a) above, one third of whom (to be determined by British Rowing drawing names at random at an Open Council Meeting) will be required to face re-election by 30th November 2013, a further third so drawn by 30th November 2014 with the final third by 30th November 2015. Those re-elected in years 2013, 2014 and 2015 will be eligible to serve a further three year period on Council and then must stand down from Council for a period of at least one year. c) Regional Constitutions: Mrs Sondheimer asked for clarification on the role of the Events Co- ordinator. Mrs Napp said she believed that this would normally be the person with responsibility for co-ordinating the competition calendar. C. George asked what the purpose of the model was and what powers could be applied with regard to Regions following it. The Chairman said that it should be seen as an advisory document, to ensure that there was consistency across the country. It was acknowledged that for Regions such as Thames there would clearly be slight variations. Constitutions came to Council to be approved and it was important that where Regions wished to make changes from the model that they should highlight those clauses and give some background to the reasons for the change.

However, maybe the previous days Schools’ Head (15th March 2019) racing at Schools Head played a part in the results with a very high standard OB’s VIII winning both races this year. Like two years ago the winds played a huge part in this years Schools’ Head. Unfortunately because of the high winds forecast the organisers had to take the difficult decision to reduce the number of crews racing for safety reasons.

  • Draw Press Release 2014
    Women’s Eights Head of the River Race Press Release WEHoRR – 74th Race features Olympians, British and overseas internationals and new victory ceremony. The 74th running of the Women’s Eights Head has received a total of 291 entries. On Saturday 15th March at 3:30pm, the 74th Women’s Head will take place from Mortlake to Putney. With the wettest Winter the UK has experienced since records began, many rowers have had their training disrupted and head races have been cancelled across the country. In recent weeks, the stream conditions on the Tideway have also been affected by the large volume of water from upriver. Providing the weather is favourable on race day, the stream should make for some very quick times and potentially allow course records to be broken. In a new format for 2014, the prizegiving for the race will be held on the same day on Putney Embankment, which represents not just a first for the Women’s Head, but a first for all the major Tideway Heads. The field has a strong showing from current and former international rowers, with no fewer than 11 Olympic Medallists in the field, who between them share 7 Gold, 7 Silver and 3 Bronze medals from Olympic regattas stretching from Los Angeles in 1984 through to London 2012. The race for the Head Pennant is likely to come down to a duel between the two British Squad boats. These comprise a composite crew featuring the likes of Gold Medallists Katherine Copeland, Heather Stanning and Helen Glover, racing against Leander Club, with Olympic Silver Medallist Frances Houghton in the five seat, and stroked by 2013 World Champion Polly Swann.
