  • James Tomkins
    JAMES TOMKINS Talent Profile © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com A three-time Olympic gold medalist and seven-time World champion, James is the most decorated rower in Australian history. He is one of only five Australians to have competed at six Olympic Games. NATIONALITY CAPABILITIES Australian Keynote Guest Panellist DATE OF BIRTH Ambassador 8/19/65 Appearances TEAMS INTERESTS Rowing Australia Health & Nutrition Wellbeing Leadership Family Business © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com BIO James began rowing at Carey Grammar in Melbourne, rising through the ranks to win national titles and earn international selection as stroke of the Men’s Eight at the 1985 World Championships. It was the first chapter in a glittering international career that included six Olympic Games (for three Gold & one Bronze medal), 11 World Championships (for seven world titles, including one in each of the five sweep oar events) and four World Cups (two titles). James competed in three events: the Coxless four, men’s eight and men’s pair and is the only rower in history to win world titles in every sweep oar event. Throughout the early 1990s James out-performed any competition he faced, winning an impressive 3 European titles, 2 world titles and an Olympic gold medal in Barcelona. In 1998, the ‘Oarsome Foursome’ returned to international competition and rowed as a coxed four, winning gold at the World Championships in Cologne. At the same regatta, James teamed up with fellow crewmember Nick Green to win gold in the coxed pairs. © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com To request more information about “When you can do something well, James Tomkins, please contact us.

  • Seven Unveils Golden Olympic Team Biggest Broadcast Undertaking in Australian TV History
    Wednesday, 14 April 2021 Seven unveils golden Olympic team Biggest broadcast undertaking in Australian TV history After a year when the world faced its toughest fight in a generation, nations that have been darkened by lockdowns, curfews and quarantines will soon be lit by the Olympic flame. With just 100 days to go until Tokyo 2020 begins, and athletes from all corners of the globe prepare to reunite in Tokyo to prove the human spirit cannot be defeated, the Seven Network has assembled a world-class Olympic and Paralympic commentary team that will lead the country’s biggest-ever broadcast and digital event. For the first time in Australian free-to-air television history, there will be 45 dedicated Olympic channels across Seven and 7plus all live, free and in HD. Australia’s most loved and respected sports broadcaster Bruce McAvaney returns for his 11th Olympic Games coverage, with Seven’s team featuring some of Australia’s greatest ever Olympians, who between them have racked up numerous Olympic and World Championship gold medals and 22 World Titles plus hundreds of Games both as competitors and broadcasters. On Wednesday, Seven announced its coverage would be anchored by Hamish McLachlan, Abbey Gelmi, Johanna Griggs, Luke Darcy, Matt Shirvington, Edwina Bartholomew, Lisa Sthalekar and Andy Maher. Leading Seven’s contingent on the ground in Tokyo, Mel McLaughlin, Mark Beretta, Jason Richardson and Nathan Templeton will make sure audiences are kept up to date with all the latest news, colour and atmosphere of the Games. Australia’s cycling golden girl Anna Meares, who won six medals including two gold across four Olympic Games, is one of the exciting new additions to Seven’s commentary team, along with former champion ironwoman Candice Warner.

The President and another 43 members present, with another 8 others voting by proxy, unanimously approved the new constitution. Many members duly recognised the significance of being conducted on a Thursday night at 6pm when the Mercs bar would normally be open by enjoying a drink during proceedings. There was some concern expressed at the size of the Secretary's scotch and whether he would survive the meeting, let alone count the votes. The President chaired the meeting admirably dispensing with the business in 17 minutes, even after accounting for the Secretary's vote counting and the Geoff Barden questions. In the end, the President saved the Secretary the bother of counting by declaring it a unanimous decision to the acclamation of those present.
