As Domestic Commissioner, Rob’s role was to direct and oversee all aspects of the domestic rowing scene, a huge role. Among his many achievements in those years, Rob developed and managed the original RNZ website and was also instrumental in bringing about the improvements in safety at regattas and for rowing in general. Rob has had a lifelong involvement in our sport and has many accolades to his name. He joined the Reading Rowing Club in England in 1965, rowed in the University of London 2nd eight, gained a “Full Purple” as a member of the University of London 1st eight, became President of the University of London Boat Club, rowing in the “Purple Eight”. He represented Great Britain at the European Championships in 1969, was admitted to the prestigious Leander Club, retiring from active rowing in 1972 and arriving in New Zealand and starting up his dentistry practice in New Plymouth in 1974. He is a life member of Clifton Rowing Club and these days, having retired from dentistry, lives on Waiheke Island. Rob has maintained a lifelong interest in photography and is seen regularly at our major regattas with his camera, capturing memorable moments from what better position than as an umpire boat driver! A regular attendee of the Henley Royal regatta, this year he took part – rejoining some of his rowing mates from yesteryear! We look forward to sharing some of Rob’s stories and experiences at the Legion Annual General Meeting on Sunday August 5th. Here is a man whose knowledge of our sport is unsurpassed! ******************************************************************************************************************* What has the Legion achieved in the past year? https://www.lor.kiwi/a-legion-update/ ******************************************************************************************************************* Junior Trust Awards Report from Paula Storey: "The farewell went very well, with good representation from the Legion Committee and some past NZ Representatives in attendance. It was good to see Terry Tidbury in attendance - he is the current Chairman of KRI - it would be good to see him at our AGM on August 5th so he gets a better sense of what the Legion is all about. Every team member, plus coaches and manager received a packet of NZ pins that went down really well - Steve Reidie spent a lot of time putting all the pins together, and each envelope had a large Legion logo pasted to the outside - so they won’t forget where they came from. The design of the pin proved very popular. Brian Parr chimed in and said the pins were so precious that they should only swop 1 for 6 others!!?? - a bit tongue in cheek. The camaraderie of the group is good and they all clapped for the winners, but obviously there were some disappointed applicants – more incentive for the Legion of Rowers to keep growing this Trust Fund" From Left to Right: Lesley Milne (Legion), Paula Storey (Legion), Veronica Wall - Ashburton College - Award winner, Wybo Veldman (Legion President), Brooke Kilmister - St Peters School - Award winner, Sam Cummins - Kings College - Award winner, Campbell Crouch - Hamilton Boys High - Award winner, Brian Parr (Legion) ******************************************************************************************************************* Auckland Regional Awards: Winners of the 2017-2018 - Legion Silver Salvers: Administrator of the Year – Paula Halliday – Takapuna Grammar RC Rower of the Year – Michael Brake North Shore RC Coach of the Year – James Coote Auckland RPC ******************************************************************************************************************* Upcoming Events – please go to website links below: th Saturday August 11 , 9 am - Mercer Regatta https://www.lor.kiwi/mercer-masters-regatta/ August 8 – 12th, Juniors Racing in Racice, Czech Republic: Follow them on Instagram; nzjuniors2018 Saturday September 1st, BOP/Rotorua Regatta, Lake Karapiro https://www.lor.kiwi/2018-bay-of-plenty-rowing-assoc-masters-regatta/ September 15 & 16th, New Zealand Master Championships, Lake Karapiro, Rowing New Zealand October 20 & 21st, Masters Weekend away (Labour weekend), Hawkes Bay – schedule of events will be circulated soon.

  • Legion of Rowers
    LEGION OF ROWERS http://www.lor.kiwi Maintaining Rowing Connections – Past, Present and Future JUNE 2018 NEWSLETTER Firstly, a very sincere thank you to all Legion Members who have joined for the first time, or renewed their Membership for the 2018 Season. We do ask that you also encourage your rowing associates to consider joining the Legion to help support our Junior Rowers in their quest for International Rowing achievements. Our Membership is steadily growing, but the costs for our Junior Rowers and their families are increasing too. I believe we have one rowing family with their 3rd child heading overseas to compete at the World Junior Champs in the Czech Republic in August this year. Secondly, thank you to all competitors and supporters for a very successful Masters Legion Regatta on April 7th 2018 – this event was jointly organised and adjudicated by the Legion of Rowers and Karapiro Rowing. Thank you to Te Awamutu Rowing Club for providing the catering. The feedback from our 2018 event was even more positive than 2017 – which, as part of the organising committee was fantastic for us to hear. We do welcome suggestions for further improvements. We may not be able to implement them all, but are keen to grow our Legion events in all ways possible. Getting it right It was that much!! Kids get medals too Junior Rowing Awards are worth DOUBLE this year We are very pleased to announce that the Legion of Rowers Junior Award is doubling in value this year. There will be 4 awards each worth $1500 and in addition the Legion is offering the Junior coach and management team the opportunity to gift up to $1500 to rower or rowers that would benefit from the additional financial support.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

Attrition in School Rowing in New Zealand: A Qualitative Descriptive Study Abstract It is widely acknowledged that involvement in sport has positive physical and psychosocial benefits for adolescents. However, concerns have been expressed, both in New Zealand and internationally, about the relatively high attrition rates in youth sport. This qualitative study captured the experiences of eight (five male, three female) adolescents who were no longer participating in high school rowing programs in New Zealand.
