Scotch Oakburn
Person-In-Charge of Rowing

Mr Alastair Blount

My role is to collaborate with the Director of Rowing to ensure the sport of rowing is an enjoyable and worthwhile experience for all students and their parents.




My Duties
*
To promote rowing and coxing within the school
* To be the liaison within the school between the Director of Rowing, students, parents and the wider community
* To be responsible for communicating information to parents and students
* Ensure students conduct themselves in accordance with school rules and ethics regarding uniform, training and behaviour
* To work with the Director of Rowing to ensure the smooth running of the sport
* To ensure the smooth running of rowing camps
* Organise buses for training, rowing camps and other events, when required
* To liaise with the Director of Rowing with regatta entries
* To communicate with Race Boat Officials regarding scratchings and substitutions
* Recommend appointments of Captains of Rowing
* Order rowing suits at the beginning of each season
* Other responsibilities as set out in the Scotch Oakburn Sports Policy and Procedures Manual

I encourage parent participation at rowing club meetings, regattas and fundraising events. For those parents who want more involvement in the sport, why not consider becoming a coach or a coaches aide?

Rowing is a challenging and exciting experience for students, which generates a special brand of team spirit that often leads to lifelong friendships and continuance of the sport after school. 

I  look forward to an enjoyable and successful 2007-2008 rowing season.
