Well done to all the athletes and coaches on your selection and your commitment to the New South Wales State Team. Thank you to the Selectors (Charles Bartlett, Nick Garratt, Andrew Randell, Stani Slavova and Andrew Rowley) and Team Manager (Paul Coates) for the work you have put in preparing and organizing the team and meeting their needs for the regatta. Also, our sincere thanks to the clubs and schools that have committed resources and particularly those lending boats free of charge or for nominal expenses. This commitment and the contributions from NSWIS and the Stepto Trust make this expensive regatta affordable for our young up and coming athletes. Your Association thanks you all for your contribution and wishes the Team the very best of luck at Nagambie.
BOAT RACE OFFICIAL TRAINING – TAKE THE TEST & GET INVOLVED!
The NSWRA is trying to develop a number of initiatives to increase the number of active Boat Race Officials across the state and share the workload of our ever increasing regatta season. One area where we desperately need new helpers is in the ranks of our Boat Race Officials. Our first step has been to offer an easy to use and readily available system to become involved at the ground floor. We hope you are willing to take this test and put your knowledge into practical use by officiating at a handful of regattas in the forthcoming season. In our next phase of developing a pathway for the recruitment of officials we will be conducting a Level 2 Boat Race Official Course. This will be an attendance based program delivered in conjunction with Rowing Queensland. We will keep you informed of the date and venue should you wish to gain more knowledge on the finer points of becoming a Boat Race Official.
