This handbook Is designed to assist you throughout the season and contains Important Information you require. Please take a moment to read through the handbook and keep It In a safe place for easy reference. You can download here: https://www.stpauls.school.nz/page/rowIng-at-st-pauls-collegiate-school RowIng Is a unique high Intensity sport whIch demands high degrees of endurance, strength, teamwork, technical expertise, mental toughness, and an abIlIty to contInue on when your body Is tellIng you that you can't. RowIng races (a regatta), held in sleek narrow boats on the water, in changing water and wInd conditions, are held over a distance of 2000 meters. All these challenging factors mean that the rowers work together and support each other. WhIle It Is Important that the rowers enjoy theIr rowing experIence, we also expect them to work hard, be committed and have a good attItude towards each other. For parents, the sport of rowIng Is also quite demanding, but can be extremely fulfIllIng. You can expect to be a taxi driver, help out at events, assist In fundraising, but mostly hear constantly about your child’s rowIng progress, technique and erg scores. Further, the demands of rowing provide healthy challenges to your son/daughter, so they may need some guIdance to become self-relIant In an Intense sporting environment. As a parent you wIll also become a member of a much larger famIly and develop new frIendshIps wIth other parents…and have heaps of fun also! Our Coaching team bring wIth them extensive rowIng experience and coaching credentials. This team Is coupled wIth a proven governance framework delIvered through a strong partnership between the School and the Club. We look forward to have you all on board for another enjoyable and successful season.

  • 2021-Rowsafe
    Introduction Welcome to RowSafe RowSafe provides safety advice to rowers, clubs, competitions and everyone else associated with the sport of rowing. RowSafe is a simple and direct web-enabled directory. The sections contain “Expectations” for various different groups, e.g. Everyone, Clubs, Competitions, Coaches, Regional Rowing Councils, and British Rowing, the list varies a little according to topic. They also contain links to other relevant information. The Approach It is a myth that “health and safety” is all about stopping people from enjoying themselves. RowSafe has adopted the modern safety approach of trying to find the ways in which people can take part in an activity without putting themselves and others at unacceptable risk. We recognise that, in the real world, there is some risk associated with every activity. A little thought can go a long way to ensuring that the level of risk is acceptable. The need for risk assessment is a continuing theme in RowSafe. This consists of thinking about hazards and the hazardous events that they can cause. Risk can be reduced by installing “barriers” that reduce the chances of a hazard producing a hazardous event and by having “controls” that limit the harm should a hazardous event occur. This is explained in detail in the Safety Basics online learning resource. Risk Assessments can be documented and detailed but these should be supplemented by considerations of whether it is safe to do what we were planning to do. We all do this every time we cross the road. Coronavirus (COVID-19) This document does not provide specific guidance related to rowing and coronavirus (COVID-19).

    Indoor Rowing Training Guide, Version 2 The Indoor Rowing Training Guide, version 2, was written by Terry O’Neill and Alex Skelton. All rights are reserved and reproduction, in whole or in part, without permission is strictly forbidden. Concept 2 Ltd, Vermont House, Nott’m South & Wilford Ind.

Tel: 0115 945 5522 Fax: 0115 945 5533 email: [email protected] web site: www.concept2.co.uk ii Indoor Rowing Training Guide, version 2 Preface We are constantly being asked for training advice, be it for a 2,000m race, rehabilitation or general fitness. As every personal trainer or fitness expert will tell you, prescribing training is not that simple. Level of fitness, training background, maximum heart rate, history of illness, time available to train and your own expectations are just a few of the factors that need to be considered when starting any training programme. We developed the original Indoor Rowing Training Guide to address all these issues, and ultimately make sure you make the right training decisions. The Indoor Rowing Training Guide, version 2 has built on the success of the first Guide and now includes sections on Nutrition and Diet, Psychological Preparation and has input from many top rowers and coaches. The Indoor Rowing Training Guide, version 2 will help you whether you are training for a race or simply would like to achieve a more healthy lifestyle. Although we can’t anticipate every individual’s requirements we aim to provide information on the basic principles involved in designing training programmes and, by including many and varied examples, guide anyone in constructing an individual programme suited to their own personal needs.
