From cuwbc at cucbc.org Sat May 1 12:40:39 2010 From: cuwbc at cucbc.org (Derek O'Brien) Date: Sat, 1 May 2010 13:40:39 +0100 Subject: [CUCBC Captains] CUWBC Honorary Secretary '10-'11 Message-ID: Dear all, There have so far been no applications for the position of CUWBC Honorary Secretary '10-'11. See below for information on the position and how to apply. It really is an enjoyable position, do not hesitate to get in touch with me if you are at all interested. *To Apply:* -You must be a member of a women's boat club (this rule is open to interpretation) -Write a short manifesto about yourself and why you would be good for the position -Be nominated and seconded by 2 people who are eligible to vote (see below) *Those eligible to vote* must satisfy at least one of the following: -All College Women's Boat Club Captains -Those who have rowed in a women's boat race crew, or named spare, and are still in residence and in statu pupillari (even if they did not row this year) The meeting will take place at 7:30pm in the Goldie Captains' Room on *Sunday, 9th May.* Please send applications to me by *Wednesday, 5th May.* ( cuwbc at cucbc.org) *About the position:* The position has 2 very distinct roles as part of the CUWBC and CUCBC committee. *CUWBC:* You will be expected to organise and take minutes at 4 meetings over the course of the year, and possibly to organise a brunch at Leander Club. Organising the brunch is quite simple since it's a yearly tradition, and Leander do most of the work!

You will be expected to assist the CUCBC committees in: -Running CUCBC races (bumps, small boats, uni IV's) -Setting the flag -Rule enforcement (i.e. fines) -The occasional e-mail to captains/contacts with reminders about noise levels, etc Please contact me by e-mail if you are at all interested in the position.

Dear all, CULRC are looking for athletes to take part in their Development Squad this summer. Anybody is welcome to trial for it, but in particular we are looking for athletes who weigh 80kg or less and who will be in a position to trial next year. We are also looking for coxes who are keen to trial next year. The important thing at this stage is to demonstrate the potential to improve to the required level, and not absolute performance. This is intended as a useful period of four weeks (Monday 21st June to Sunday 18th July) where we will begin the process of beating Oxford in the 2011 Boat Race. However, participation in the Development Squad is not a requirement to join formal trialling in September, so don't fret if you already have plans this summer. There will be a meeting for those interested on Monday 10th May at 4.45pm (finished in time for men's hour) at Goldie BH in the Captains' Room. We will introduce next year's junior committee, as well as provide a summary of the successful Boat Race campaign this year, and how we intend to progress from this position. There will then be a 2k selection erg on Tuesday 11th and Wednesday 12th May at Goldie BH at 2pm on both days. Please do not make your own judgements of what is a suitable 2k...as said, it is about potential and not current performance. If you cannot make either of these erg days or indeed the meeting, then please let me know by email. The intention is to hold the erg asap after the meeting so people can get on with organising College accommodation. If there is a real problem here, then let me know and we may be able to help arrange something for you, along the lines of camping on the floor of another rower. Different to the Development Squads of previous years, we plan on only taking 16 athletes plus 2 coxes, with scope for fewer or more depending on the quality of the applicants. We will race at Kingston and Molesey Regattas where we have won the Victor Ludorums for most successful club in the last few years. Although there is flexibility within this for talented athletes who can only make three of those weeks, we will primarily be looking for athletes who can make the whole period and who will also be in a position to trial next year for the 2011 campaign. Coxes will essentially be selected by previous experience, but again, priority will be given to those who are able to trial next year, so do apply if you would like to be considered.

Hopefully this will help you all out, as I know that it can be difficult to find people able to do those two hour slots. Therefore, please encourage members of your club to sign up. If not enough people come forward, then there will be no option but ask for additional help - and this will be done in proportion to entries taking into account those who are already helping.

Recently I had a 'water cooler' discussion with one of the chaps I work with; he mentioned that his brother-in-law (an engineer with BAE) developed a quick-release footstretcher mechanism, the "LeverGlide". It works like a quick-release system on a bike: http://www.qr-racing.com/page3.htm Out of curiosity, I rang the developer and asked him for a trial pair, installed it on a single I was pottering around in and gave it a go. I have to admit, I had a massive "why didn't I think of this before??" moment - it worked brilliantly. Thinking back to my coaching days on the Cam, frequently >10 minutes - or approximately 10-15% of the totally outing time - was wasted adjusting footplates, riggers, etc. It seems the LeverGlide could be a viable solution to saving a precious commodity in the CUCBC world - time. I have *zero* commercial interest in this product, I'm just trying to facilitate a link between someone who's passionate about rowing with a crowd of passionate rowers. If you have questions, drop him a line directly or feel free to email me if you would like a neutral 3rd party opinion. Take care and good luck in bumps!

Purvis) Date: 11 May 2010 15:40:50 +0100 Subject: [CUCBC Captains] transport to poplar Message-ID: Hi Guys; Given the number of college oarsmen headed to Poplar this Sunday 16th, I thought it might be worth investigating the possibility of hiring a coach to take us down their to cut down on faff and costs. I've asked for a ball park quotation for a coach of 50 people(details obviously all tbc) and the cost would be around ?10-?15 per person, for the return trip. Could you reply to me (shp33 at cam.ac.uk)ASAP, BUT BEFORE 4PM ON THURSDAY if you would be interested in being involved in this option, and if so, include the number of people who would require seats. If enough people express interest for this to be viable, I will allocate seats on the first coach (~50 places) on a first come first served basis (maybe with a few combinatorial jigglings to ensure empty seats are minimised) and obviously I'll look into a second coach if necessary/cost efficient. Bear in mind that if you agree to this you'd have to potentially hang around until 7pm or so dependant on which crews make which finals, but I can't work out timings until I know who's coming. I'll be in touch with those of you interested we details re. cost, payment and timings as soon as possible.

Message-ID: Dear All, CUWBC are looking for rowers and coxes to take part in their four week development program at the start of the Summer. We are interested in potential openweights or lightweights who can row, enjoy it and are keen to improve. There will be a meeting for all interested rowers and coxes on Monday 24th May at 5pm, finished well before women's hour, location to be confirmed. The programme will be four weeks long from the 21st June to the 19th July. Sessions are compatible with jobs and PhDs as we train on the Cam in the early morning and the evening. We will be entering Kingston and Molesey regattas in the last two weeks. You'll gain valuable technical knowledge, physiological fitness and racing experience and have great fun training in the sunshine. Primarily we are looking for people that can make the whole four weeks, but there is some flexibility for talented athletes who intend to trial next year and can only make part of the time. Dev squad puts you in an excellent position to trial with us in September, but it is not essential so please do let us know if you are busy over the summer but do intend to begin rowing with us next year. If you are interested please fill out the online application form here: http://www.cuwbc.org/devsquadapp.php and if you have any further questions please email president at cuwbc.org. We will confirm places on development squad by the beginning of bumps week at the latest. We look forward to hearing from you!

The Getting-on Race will take place on Friday 4th June, with mixed divisions going off at 5pm and 6pm. These are arranged so that they will hopefully not conflict with exams as much as possible. If you wish to request a particular division for you crew, please feel free to do so, but obviously this can only be worked around to a certain extent so to have roughly even numbers of crews in both divisions. As this clashes with the evening hours, we will do as previous years and have a combined mens/womens hour from the end of the GoR until 8pm. If you are eligible to go over the lock, it will be fine to row through between divisions, but please let me know in advance so that I know who to expect, and be aware that you'll have to follow marshals instructions.
