Update on Willow Tree Removal
ACT Parks will be felling willow trees near Lady Denman Drive into the
lake. Debris will be removed daily, but a safety line of buoys will be
installed to keep rowers clear of the works. Please keep a look out for
the buoys and ensure that crews stay to the south of the line. Although
debris from the felling will be removed, it would be wise to keep an
eye out as you row in the area.

Member Protection Policy update - new version Rowing
Australia and the Australian Sports Commission have updated the Member
Protection Policy that is adopted by all Australian Rowing
organisations. The update relations to clarifying the policy in
relation to the "Working with Children Check" laws operating in
Australia now. The policy can be found here. AIS Common Cold Research - opportunity to join in Upper
respiratory tract infections (common cold) infections are a reason many
athletes miss training in Canberra during the winter season. The
Department of Physiology is undertaking a study to examine whether
probiotics reduce colds and GI illness over the 6 months of winter and
spring. The study involves taking a probiotic supplement provided by
the AIS daily from May to September 2010 and filling in an online daily
physical activity and illness log. The log takes about 2 minutes per
day to fill out. The study is designed to be as minimally time
consuming as possible and only require participants to be able to log
in to a computer. Probiotic supplements, termed good bacteria,
are being marketed as a way to boost your immune system and reduce the
risk of contracting infection. While evidence for the use of
probiotic supplements in specific sub-groups of the population is
increasing, there is little evidence of efficacy in physically active,
healthy individuals. If you are between 18 to 60 years of age,
healthy and undertaking a minimum 2 to 3 exercise sessions a week, we
are looking for you. There are a number of benefits of participating, including: - That the supplement may reduce the risk of illness this winter;
- The AIS is running free lectures on nutrition and training program design; and
- The supplement is free.
The
only restriction is that a number of brands of commercial yoghurt
cannot be eating during the study. More information can be found here. Or you can contact Nicholas West at the AIS at clinicaltrialais@ausport.gov.au for more information.

Physiology
Testing - Participants Sought
An opportunity has come up for ACT rowers to participate as subjects in
some testing being conducted by a PhD student based in the Physiology
Department of the Australian Institute of Sport. The testing
quantifies individuals’ responses to supplements used by rowers
(caffeine and sodium bicarbonate) when completing repeated 2000m
efforts (in a similar format to a major regatta).
The testing will begin the week after the ACT Championships (the week
of 15th March), and will be completed by 2 April (Good
Friday). Each rower completes a total of 6 x 2000m erg
tests. There are three tests in the first week, then one week
with no testing, and three more tests in the final week (the week of
29th March). Testing is done between 6am and 8am on the
designated days.
Each participant will receive information on his/her performance after
taking each supplement, and from the results we can recommend the most
suitable supplements (for that athlete) to use in preparation for
competition. Please note that this does not breach any sporting or
ASADA codes. Details of the study can be found here.
If you would like to participate, or to find out more information,
please email to
ASAP

Amy's Ride
comes to Canberra - Sunday 14 March
An Amy Gillett Bike ride is being held in
Canberra
on Sunday 14th March. This is the second day of the ACT Rowing
Championship Regatta. Rowers are probably aware that Amy
Gillett
(nee Safe) was a dual world Junior Champion
rower and rowing Olympian.
To support this worthwhile cause, ACTRA proposes that the
regatta
will stop to applaud the leading peloton as it passes. In addition, the
ACT Championship womens 1X will be dedicated to the memory of
Amy
Gillett. For those from Amy's generation of elite rowers get
on
your bike and contact Angie Holbeck.

David Bagnall

Message from ACTRA President
Dear rowing supporters
I
would like to thank our Boat Race Officials for running a superb ISRA
regatta over the weekend. This regatta is the biggest in the ACT and
despite its bad press last year, continues to attract many Inter-state
schools despite competing regattas in Sydney and elsewhere.
We
continue to attract many excellent School rowing programs to compete.
Gold medals reflected good wins against tough competition, and I
congratulate all winning crews. All participants were involved in close
racing, and would have enjoyed the perfect conditions for much of the
regatta.
Our Boat Race Officials did Rowing ACT proud. Despite
having intervals of 4 minutes between races and strong cross winds,
they still managed to get most of the regatta away on time,
notwithstanding the inability of Year 8 rowers to maneuver their boats
at the start.
Our volunteers keep our sport afloat.
This was a great co-operative effort, reflecting the best of the rowing
community in the ACT.
Thanks
also to regatta convener Dafydd Gwynn-Jones, ACTRA Admin
Officer
Anthony Pardy, and the army of parents who supported as traffic
wardens, food sellers, commentators and other roles from all of the
participating schools
