Rowing Club Term 4
Glebe Rowing club is really excited about the opportunity to establish a program for Brigidine. The program will serve as a great pathway to build on the club's schoolgirl junior program.
Glebe Rowing Club Program Outline
| What GRC will provide | A 10 week Learn-to-Row course where students will have the opportunity to learn sweep oar (one oar) and sculling (two oar) crew rowing. After the course, students who are keen will be invited to join the club’s Summer or Winter Holiday Junior Training program or join the clubs as a junior squad member. | |
| Number of participants | Maximum 25 participants | |
| Session number | 10 sessions | |
| Cost | The school will pay for the majority of the course as well as the transport. Each student will need to pay $50. A direct payment link will be set up on Compass. | |
| Schedule | Thursdays, 12:45 – 2:15pm (1.5hrs in total) | |
| Transport | Students will be transported to and from Glebe Rowing Club | |
| Coaching pool (for July group) | 3 coaches per session from the following pool. All coaches will have WWCC numbers we can provide and at least 1 will be first aid trained.
| |
| Bad weather scenario | In the case of bad weather, and where school sport is still on, we will be able to have students at the club and will be able to host them indoors on rowing machines.
| |
| Extras we would provide | An online course guide to help students remember what they have been taught (example linked here) | |

Congratulations to Ruby Thomasyu who recently competed in the Australian Under 20’s women’s squad for Touch Football in Queensland.
"To be at the Australian selection camp for the Youth Touch Football World cup was a fantastic experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. Being beside the best players and coaches in the country taught me so much more about the game and how to play well. I am very grateful to have been there."
