On the water training
The picture below shows Richard helping two juniors into a double skull. The coaches have the use of club launches for coaching from the water & ensuring the safety of the juniors.

Here we see Les assisting with the extra stable trainer skulls.

Safety
Safety of the juniors is always paramount. Here we see the juniors going through capsize drill at a local pool. Richard coaching through the rare event of a capsize. Much warmer in the pool!
