A Short History of Para-Rowing
A Short History of Para-Rowing Level 1 May 1915 “a little army of girls, living in all parts of London, regularly getting up very early to come to steer the St Dunstan’s boats” Rowing – A Sport for All The earliest mention of rowing for individuals with a disability was in Great Britain at Worcester College for the Blind, a residential school for young people with visual Impairments. Pupils were encouraged to take up rowing and compete against their sighted peers in regattas, including The Thames Challenge Cup at Henley Royal Regatta in 1927. The boathouse was established in 1913 by George Clifford Brown, a progressive Headmaster. Brown appears to have decided to resolve the problem of demonstrating equality by only promoting the sports in which his students could compete without modifications, so that they would be regarded as equivalent to their fully-sighted peers. The headmaster wanted to provide the same sports as a public school, not only for their own merit and the contacts that could be made, but also for the ethos they promoted. When Brown went to New York in 1931 to attend the first World Conference on Work for the Blind, he stressed his goals and the ambition his school was striving to inspire: “In the official games I include only those which can be brought to the same level of excellence as those of the schools for the sighted, and in which competition may take place on equal terms with the schools for the sighted.... These games ... enable [the boy] to keep in constant contact with the seeing world. -
MAKING PROGRESS a Guide to the New ARA Points Scheme for Event Organisers
NATIONAL COMPETITION COMMITTEE EVENT ORGANISERS’ GUIDE MAKING PROGRESS April 2009 A Guide to the new ARA Points scheme for Event Organisers INTRODUCTION The purpose of this guide is to explain the detailed changes to the ARA points scheme that apply from April 2009, and to provoke your thinking on how best to structure your event to take advantage of the changes. If you have any questions about the mechanics of the new scheme, or want to pursue some of the ideas for developing your event referred to in this guide, please get in touch with the National Competition Committee – either directly or through your ARA Divisional Representative. THE CHANGES For the past three years the National Competition Committee has been trying to address the growing problem of an imbalance in the distribution of points amongst the ARA’s 13,000 registered adult competitors. Under the present scheme there are 14 levels (Novice and then 0‐12 points), and yet half those competitors are Novices, and 90% have less than 5 points. We wanted simple, effective remedies, and the April 2009 changes are just that: they’re easy to understand and easy to implement. It means that when you go racing, you’re more likely to meet evenly matched competition, and that as you move up the points table, you’ll continue to get some decent racing. By far the simplest solution is to award more points to more winners, and so make full use of the points table. And the simplest way to achieve that is to turn most wins into qualifying wins: this change alone will double the number of points won each year at ARA regattas. -
