Kia Ora everyone
After a short break we are back! There are a lot of behind the scenes activities going on to get the new season underway, so thank you to everyone involved. We’ll be calling for more input soon to get the season off to a great start. Sorry, a lot of dates and notices…! Dates for your Diary
Rowing Season Commencement Welcome back to another great season of rowing ahead! The Onslow College rowing season officially kicks off with the LTR programme, details below. If you are undecided about returning to rowing, then you are welcome to come to these sessions and to talk to the coaches about any concerns. If you are still playing winter sport, then remember to complete your winter sports commitments before using the LTR days for commencing rowing training but if you can fit in both then that would be beneficial. There will be some sessions where you may help train new LTR recruits and sessions where you will do your own training. Coaches will keep in contact with you as well. WRC Registration Rowers & coxswains, please register on WRC. There is a new website and everyone has to register in order to get on the new database. This should be done in order to participate in the LTR programme. https://www.sporty.co.nz/wellingtonrowing/Register-1 OC Open Evening
LTR Promotion at School If you know students interested in rowing at school, then please spread the word. We need to get a good intake of new novice rowers to keep the programme viable and cost effective. Apart from the fact that it is a great sport to learn many skills beneficial for both on and off the water, being a fantastic environment for teamwork and friendships and keeping super fit for winter sports trials! Please encourage others to come along and try out the LTR programme. It is a 5 week programme, $110, see the website for more details: https://ocrowingclub.weebly.com/learn-to-row-2019.html There will also be information in the Notices and Bulletin for the next couple of weeks and Year 9 PE class erg sessions. Thanks to the senior rowers and our coaches who will be helping with these sessions. Call for ergs: If you have an erg at home, then we require a few more to use over this week, so if you can loan yours out, that would be very helpful. They will be well looked after and locked away after each session. Please contact Marie Butel: [email protected] OC Sports Photos
