Our seventh Learn To Row session was held on Saturday September 23rd with quite a turnout. We were able to launch and row an 8+ and a 4+, thanks to help from some varsity members: in the 4+ was Clare stroke, Delaney 2 and Nicole bow, together with Ashley, a St Greg's 8th grader in the three seat. With help from Clare, Enzo (Bobby's brother and also an 8th grader from St Greg's) served as cox.
In the 8+ for the first part of the session, we had Nina coxing, Charlie in stroke and Bobby in bow. The middle six were novices Jo Marie 2, Nolan 3, TJ (Thomas) 4, Mia 5, Ray 6, and Austin 7 . For the second half of the water time Nicolas was switched into bow and Ricardo into 7.
The session was kicked off with technique review on land on erg's and then we did review of sweep rowing technique on dock, and then got on the water.
Coach O'Brien was very pleased with everyone's enthusiasm and noted our novices are picking up rowing very quickly.
Again thanks to all the parents who stayed and to John Laing for the pictures. Keep 'em coming!
