Past Additions & Updates to This Website

January 2013

February 2025

Given that we are in the peak of the rowing season, less has been achieved this month than in the quieter months.

This month our focus has been on 1989 with images scanned from negative film for the 1989 World Championships and National Championships. These can be found on the Australian Rowing Images website. Also added to the this site have been:

1989 Australian Rowing Championships regatta program
1989 World Championships regatta program
1989 World Championships result sheets

As usual, additions and corrections are always being made including additional rower profiles.

July 2023

July was a momentous month for this site with the last of the chapters, the Interstate Championships, migrated over this site. This has been a significant task made possible by the superb work of web designer Hope Stewart. Thank you Hope.

Whilst this work dominated our endeavours this month, updates to other chapters continued including to the Interstate Championships, Under 23 World Championships, Rower Profiles, and school regattas. Access to Sydney High School records have been very helpful in filling gaps in many early GPS regatta results and this work continues. More on this next month. Finally, more historical photos are being added to the Australian Rowing Images website regularly. This is becoming another important historical source.

The idea for this history originated from the Olympic Rowing and World Senior Rowing Championship histories written by Andrew Guerin and Margot Foster in 1991, 1992 & 1993 for the Australian team handbooks. Andrew Guerin developed and extended these histories to the current format in 2004 for publication in 2004 and then expanded the site.

Steve Roll has been an invaluable contributor to the website in locating errors and finding Christian names of rowers. His superb work is acknowledged.
