Attendance is required by all those who wish to take up coxing this term. A register will be taken. The purpose of the meeting is to outline the necessary safety, etiquette and practical aspects of coxing for those new to the sport, such that all coxes on the Cam have had at least a basic level of instruction independent of their boat club's coaches. We are aware that not all new coxes will be on the relevant mailing lists. Please would boat club captains and other coxes please pass this message along to their novices, and advise them to sign up for the coxes@ and contacts@ mailing lists on this page .

This is particularly important now that the clocks have gone back and a lot of outings are starting at ~0620. Control needs to start on arrival at the boathouse - this includes chatting by the water (coaches included need to keep their voices down), putting the boat on the water quietly, not shouting down from a window in the boathouse etc. Once on the water, cox-boxes need to be kept to a minimum volume and commands should be limited to those that are essential (even at the expense of potential coaching points). This state must be maintained until the Railway Bridge or until 0730, whichever is reached sooner. Be aware that passing above the Railway Bridge (moving upstream) before 0730 means that quiet-running is again necessary. Please pass this on to boatmen and coaches, even mid-outing, particularly if coaching is happening over/through/near a moored boat (which it shouldn't be under any circumstances before 0730). This email was prompted by my observations of multiple crews and coaches making a lot of unnecessary noise by the P&E at ~0625 over the last few days, and in previous weeks by the boathouses. Mat. *CUCBC* (Captains please pass this on to your clubs, coaches, boatmen, and so on). -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:
