The Thomas Keller Trophy
Men's Under 19 Scull
(Scullers race for The Thomas Keller Memorial Trophy)
Thomas Keller Memorial Trophy was presented by the Tasmanian Rowing Council to Australian Amateur Rowing Council in 1990 for the Men's Championships Junior Scull in honour of the Late Thomas Keller, President of FISA.
Thommi Keller had been instrumental in both the development of the Lake Barrington course in Tasmania and the granting of the 1990 World Championships to Australia and the Lake Barrington course.
The trophy is presented by the most senior FISA representative at the event.
This event commenced in 1982 and should not be confused with the old junior category which was the category before open and had no age restriction.
Many scullers from this event have gone onto win Olympic and World Championships medals. It is good indicator of future success.
