One of the highlights of this regatta was the gold medal performance of Jack Beresford in the double scull. Beresford, in his fifth Olympic Games and at the age of 37, had a tough race against the German combination of Kaidal and Pirsch who had the better of the British crew in the heat. Beresford won a medal in each Games he attended including 3 gold medals. It is only speculation whether a sixth Olympic Games was possible without the intervention of World War 2.

  • 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.
