Geoff A Worth

Torrens Rowing Club (SA)

Geoffrey Worth came from King's College (which later became Pembroke School) to Torrens Rowing Club in 1969. He was the number one coxswain at the club.

Michael Eastaughffe recalls: We had two very good coxswains at this time in SA, the other was Brenton Parsons from Adelaide University Boat Club. Geoff coxed many crews for Torrens over the years, not only Lightweight 4, but Senior 8 in 1969 through to 1977. A very successful era for Torrens.

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.
