ACT Rowing Association
2007 Kings Cup Team

Youth Eight for the National Titles
Selection Trial

• Ergometer will be weight adjusted and ranked with Rowing Australia prognostic.
• Results of weight adjusted ergometer and time trial prognostics will be averaged and nominees ranked from this score.
• Top 10 will form a squad from which the final eight will be chosen.
• Final 8 from the squad of ten will be selected by performance in the eight. This will be a subjective judgement by the Selectors which will include any information available to the Selectors at that time (past performances, ergometer scores, technical ability, how they fit into the crew). This step will be completed as soon as practicable after the ergometer test and time trial and it is anticipated that it will be completed in a minimum number of training sessions (possibly one).
• Athletes have a responsibility to inform the Selectors of any condition or circumstance that will affect their performance in the trial process. Should the rower choose to be medically exempt from the trial upon the presentation of a medical certificate, the Selectors will make subjective decisions in regards to these athletes based on any information that is available at that time (past performances, ergometer scores, technical ability, how they fit into the crew).
• Crew announcements will only be made by the selectors after the trials. Final crew list require endorsement from the ACTRA Board. Questions regarding selection, trialling and exemptions should be directed to either Gordon Marcks or Camilla Hayman. Details below.
