But let’s not forget about Sydney University’s Women’s Rowing Club, who have also had 6 young women selected. These young women include; Elizabeth Kell, Bronwen Watson, Chloe O’Regan, Emma Costello, Ashleigh Peppernell and Beatrix Sheldrick.
Not only are these clubs turning out fine oarsmen, oarswomen and coxes, but they are also making their mark with supreme coaches. Coach Mark Prater has been selected to coach the men’s Penrith Cup team. Coach Phillip Bourguigon has been selected to coach the men’s Noel F Wilkinson Trophy (Youth Eight). And Coach Alan Bennette has been selected to coach the women’s Queens Cup team.
