BY COLIN THORSEN

New Zealand men’s coxed four coach James Coote is lavish in his praise of coxswain Ivan Pavich ahead of the Junior World Rowing Cham- pionships in France. ‘‘Ivan’s doing a fantastic job pulling together a team from different schools, with different ideas about how to row,’’ says Coote. ‘‘I’ve been really impressed with him over the past three weeks since setting up camp at the New Zealand High Performance Centre at Karapiro. TC090609CT09,10 ‘‘He’s a real little battler, a real competitor, who drives the crew on in their training. He sets very EARLY start to the day at Karapiro for New high standards for the crew.’’ Zealand junior rowing representatives Mackenize The 17-year-old Pavich, a Year 13 student at St Macky (left) and coxswain Ivan Pavich. Paul’s Collegiate, is coxswain of the New Zealand men’s coxed four line-up of George Grieve, Oliver Moss and Shaun Houston (Westlake BHS) and Richard Newsome-White (Christ’s College). Pavich is a fourth generation Waipa district resident, attending Te Pahu Pre-school and Primary School, then St Paul’s Collegiate School where he is HI PETER GLIDDEN HERE currently a house prefect. In Year 9 he was approached by Chris Foote, St Paul’s head rowing coach, to become a coxswain. ‘‘He reckoned my small stature and personality was ideally suited for a cox,’’ quipped Pavich. ‘‘The St Paul’s Collegiate Rowing Club has been in a rebuilding phase ever since I have been there. ‘‘This year, for the first time since 2003, we had an Under-18 eight in contention for the Maadi Cup. The eight included myself and two others from my first ever crew ‘The Muppets’ proving that deter- mination and commitment do pay off.’’ St Paul’s gained bronze medals in the Under-21 eight at the 2009 North Island club championships, Under-18 eight at the North Island secondary schools’ championships, bronze in the senior men’s eight at the national club championships (Twizel) and clocked their best ever time finishing fourth in the Maadi Cup, having led for the first half of the race. ‘‘Our sub-six minute time would have been good INNOVA MUDGEAR TYRES enough for a medal in previous years.’’ Pavich was also cox for the Waikato (RPC) Regional Performance Centre earlier this year, +GST gaining silver with the men’s premier eight No 2 ONLY crew at North Island club championships, behind $$333333 the Waikato No 1 crew. For the past three consecutive years, Pavich has taken out the Coxswain’s Cup for ‘best coxswain’ at St Paul’s Collegiate. He is only the second coxswain in the schools’ history to have received the award three times, joining Te Awamutu’s Linton Chitty. Having played rugby since he was five (for Pirongia prior to secondary school), he also took up boxing last year to maintain fitness. This combined with two/three long distance runs each week enables him to keep within the desired weight for a coxswain. Pavich’s goals for the future include represent- ing New Zealand at Under-23 and elite level. Petersen riding for Canadian pro cycle team
