Coaching with Eric

Our women's D quad paid Eric again to come and 'fine-tune' us - see why we thought we needed it?!
If you want to get away without rowing, simply sit in bow... NOW we see what you've been playing at Mrs Wright!


Interesting to find that it's only fine-tuning that's needed now. Mainly in the point between getting bodies rocked over past the knees and then taking the last part of the slide very slowly and controlled. Almost a change in gearing....

Easter rowing

those who missed it would have loved the fantastic water.
I was lucky - 3 days' rowing with coaching on 2 of them by the very special Alan.
Does the club know how lucky we are to have these people who coach?
