Background: The RA National Selection Policy – Senior Team (“Selection Policy”) and the 2021 Olympic Nomination Criteria (“Olympic Nomination Criteria”), which outline the broad selection and nomination criteria for all rowers and coxswains, can be viewed on the RA website at www.rowingaustralia.com.au. These 2021 Event Requirements operate as an appendix to the Selection Policy and Olympic Nomination Criteria, and outline the activities that rowers and coxswains must complete to be eligible for: • Selection consideration for the Australian Senior A Team to compete at 2021 World Cups, with date and locations to be confirmed; • Pending the confirmation of the Final Qualification Regatta and process, selection consideration for the Australian Senior A Team to compete at the 2021 Final Qualification Regatta in Lucerne, Switzerland; • Nomination to the AOC for selection to the 2021 Australian Olympic Team.

Rowing Australia Event Requirement: Senior Team (Updated 3 July 2020) Important Note: Under the Selection Policy, RA may, as a matter of policy, elect not to send a boat or boats to an event. In this regard, RA has elected not to send any Non-Olympic class boats to the World Cups in 2021 (in order to enable RA to focus its resources on maximising performances at the 2021 Olympic Games). Notwithstanding this, rowers selected as reserves to support selected Olympic Class boats may be selected to race in a non-Olympic category at World Cup II and/or World Cup III. For example, an athlete who is selected as a reserve for the WL2x may be selected to race in the WL1x.

  • COME FORWARD - February 2021
    COME FORWARD - February 2021 There has not been a lot of rowing competition to report on over the last 6 months, due to the Covid 19 restrictions, but there has still been a lot of “background”. Administrators from Rowing Australia and Rowing NSW to all the individual Clubs have been extremely busy working towards when and how competition will resume, and how to manage training. We are fortunate that we have a sport that lends itself better than many to training under these circumstances, and it is clear that there are a lot more rowers getting out in Singles.

  • HRSA Monthly Report
    HRSA Monthly Report August 2020 Stephen Worley Lightning can kill A 19 year old coach was killed and a 14 year old junior rower was injured when they were struck by lightning when sheltering under a tree in a thunderstorm. This tragedy occurred in January 2019 at Germiston, South Africa. According to Rowing South Africa:- “The regatta had closed for the day, a group of athletes together with their coach started to walk back to their hotel which was close to Germiston Lake. While walking, a very severe storm struck the area and the group sought shelter under a tree. Tragically, lightning struck the tree, fatally injuring the coach and injuring the athlete.” There is more information here and here, and a news report video here. There were two Incident Reports in August in which rowers were reported to be on the water during a lightning storm. In both cases the clubs have procedures that restrict rowing in these conditions but these appear to have been forgotten or neglected by the rowers. One report stated that the rowers “went out after the storm had started and remained out as the storm intensified to six seconds between thunder and lightning”. A subsequent comment stated that they hid under a bridge. In the other report the weather was described as being thunder and lightning and the crew was pushing off from the pontoon. A Safety Alert on Lightning has been published and is included with this report. It contains the following:- “Rowers are particularly vulnerable as they are often in wide open spaces where they are the highest thing around.
