Kia Ora everyone
After a short break we are back! Not quite embarking on the official season as winter sport still has priority over summer sport at the moment. But there are plenty of rowing activities kicking off and it’s great to see lots of rowers getting involved. Dates for your Diary
Winter Training this weekend Rowers, please bring spanners. Some training may be at North End, but tbc Sat morning.
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 Opening of 2019/20 Season:
LTR / Spring Training LTR and spring training for existing rowers begins Friday 16th August with the following schedule:
LTR / Spring Training Camp
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. All year groups welcome and the first 2 weeks are free.
Direct anyone interested in rowing to the rowing website for more info: https://ocrowingclub.weebly.com/about.html Season Calendar on the website The season calendar is on the website - to start planning your family holidays around rowing! https://ocrowingclub.weebly.com/regattas--camps.html Book Fair
You will have received the spreadsheet with your job allocation with the flyers for distribution to come. We really need all our members to get behind the book fair as it is our only fundraiser and is vital for funds towards coach and equipment expenses which make our own overall rowing costs slightly cheaper. Please contact your squad manager or Rachael Martin if you have any questions or need to swap a shift. [email protected] OCRC AGM Save the date for the OCRC AGM:
WRC Board The structure of the WRC committee and Board is changing slightly at the WRC AGM and while the date for nominations for board members have now past, they would still be keen to hear particularly from school parents as representatives of student rowers. If you are interested in a role on the Board or want to find out about what the Board does, then contact coach Jared Cummings. No rowing experience is needed as the Board provides a governance role which is currently lacking in school representation. [email protected] Finally, Welcome back!
