    Chapter 3: 1997-2014 After 1996, the crew team had a short period of difficulty. Coach Phil Holmes took over from Phil Busse although the transition does not appear to have been smooth. One short article from the Oregon Daily Emerald, in the fall, quoted Holmes as saying, “The rowers are very pleased with themselves, and I am, too,” but then, in a section blacked out by whoever saved the article, he added, “they started from scratch after being abandoned last Willamette Regatta, 1997 year.” 1 In another fall article, Holmes expressed a feeling that 1996-1997 would be “a rebuilding year.” 2 Phil Holmes was an experienced rowing coach with short stints at UC Berkeley in the mid-1970s, Cal Maritime Academy in the late-1970s, and Lakeside High in Seattle up to 1985. His position with Oregon, which ran from 1997 to 1999, was his first work as a coach since 1985.3 The crew would go through the traditional series of races in the fall and spring of that year including the LO/OP and Head of the Lake in the fall4 along with two races in Seattle, The Covered Bridge Regatta at Dexter Lake, and the Pac-10 Championships in Sacramento during the spring.5 6 7 Two crews, the men’s varsity 4+ and women’s varsity 8+, were invited to the prestigious Opening Day Regatta that year at the University of Washington. The men’s boat finished 4/7 behind two Husky boats and a Western Washington crew that had placed ahead of them in three straight races.8 The women’s boat was unfortunately disqualified from their race after hitting a buoy and breaking a rigger, the part which holds up the oar, on the boat.

  • PRIMER on HOW to SCULL Welcome to the Sport of Rowing Or Sculling
    PRIMER ON HOW TO SCULL Welcome to the sport of rowing or sculling. This is one of the most rewarding and enjoyable of all water sports, as well as being a complete exercise and an efficient means of transportation. However, like any new activity, a little practice is necessary at the start. Perhaps the best way to learn the sport of rowing is to get instructions from an experienced sculler. In the absence of such advice, however, this guide should help you to get started. There are four sections: 1. Carrying the equipment and getting in and out of the boat. 2. Rowing and turning 3. Problems you may encounter and how to correct them. 4. Glossary of terms. Because they are built for speed, rowing boats are narrow, and until you become used to handling them, can tip over easily. You should start only when the water is warm and it is advisable to have another person present to watch out for you and to help with these instructions. You should be a swimmer or wear an approved life vest. If you should capsize, do not leave the boat but rather stay with it and use the boat and/or the oars as a flotation device with which to swim to shore. You should read through the entire text first, then concentrate on the first section. Take your time, relax, and enjoy learning to row. Don't try to row too fast at the beginning; it will probably take a couple of outings before you feel comfortable and can fully enjoy the sport.

  • Between the Ears the Boatie Edition
    Between the Ears Competition Newsletter of the Swanbourne NedlandsSurf Life Saving Club (The race might finish between the flags, but between the ears is where the race is won and lost...and it’s also where the famous red and white cap of Swanny sits…) The Boatie Edition You wouldn’t think it to look at the club these days, but Swanny has historically been a boatie club. Yes, that’s right; our biggest stars, our brightest lights, our most successful champions have mostly been boaties. The U21 crew of 63 was the first WA crew to EVER win a national boat title, and our Reserve boat crew of ’79 is one of only 3 national champions the club has ever had. George “Ken” Jolly, a member of both crews, is the only Swanny member in history with 2 Aussie gold medals. Boaties down at Swanny these days are a rare and endangered species, but even so, there are more boaties still around than people think. For example, who knew that John Garnett was the “A” crew captain for nearly 6 years? Or that Briggy first joined Swanny simply to row surf boats? Ed Jaggard, Gav Pascoe, Kev White and Leavo have all been sweeps, and many of our life members are old boatie die-hards. John Stringfellow, Terry Foley, Jon Broomhall, John Foley, Gary Williamson, Dave Gallagher and Erin Gallagher – the list is a who’s who of Swanny glitterati, committee members and social stalwarts. The list also includes such luminaries as Dan and Ben Jingles, Dan Hazell and current nipper parents Sam van Dongen and Sharon Wyllie (Nee Nelligan).

  • Guidance for Rowers and Canoeists on Shared Waters
    Guidance for Rowers and Canoeists on shared water INTRODUCTION The growth in participation in water sports means that many rowing and canoe clubs and centres have to share the water where they row or canoe and it is important to build good relationships. This advice is published jointly by British Canoeing and British Rowing. Rowing boats and canoes behave very differently. By understanding these differences, and agreeing and following some basic guidelines, rowers and canoeists can happily share the same piece of water. The following table highlights the major differences: Rowing and sculling boats Canoes and Kayaks Relatively fast Relatively slow Good view astern, poor view ahead Good view ahead, poor view astern Not very manoeuvrable Manoeuvrability varies according to design Wide (up to 7 m blade tip to blade tip) Narrow Difficult to stop quickly Easier to stop quickly What canoeists need to know about rowing boats • There are many different types and sizes of rowing and sculling boats, for 1, 2, 4 or 8 people. • Rowing boats (especially 4s and 8s) are fast and go well in straight lines. • Rowing boats do not naturally stop quickly but rowers can do an emergency stop. • Rowers do not face the direction of travel. • Some rowing boats have coxes – some are in the front of the boat, some are at the back. • Coxes have restricted vision – the ones in the front cannot see behind at all or to the side very easily, coxes at the back have difficulty seeing directly ahead, can see to the side and have limited vision behind.

  • 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.
