class="post-inner thin "> <div class="entry-content"> <p>Hong Kong China dominated the lightweight categories, winning the lightweight men’s and women’s 2000m event in both senior and under-23 age groups. For the Hong Kong team, one of the most highly-anticipated races was the lightweight men’s under-23 2000m in which Chan Chi Fung took gold and recorded the fastest time for lightweights overall of 6:22.0. Fung has set a number of World Records on Concept2 sliders over the past few months.</p> <p>“Due to the impact of the pandemic, all races have been suspended. The virtual competition offered the platform for rowers to compete with each other around the world,” said Fung. “Since 2018, I have been very eager to participate in indoor rowing competitions at the international level, however, sometimes it was not possible due to the clash between outdoor training and competitions. This year, the <a href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/event/2021-world-rowing-indoor-championships/">World Rowing Indoor Championships</a> changed into virtual format because of the pandemic and, most importantly, the Asian Qualifier was hosted by Hong Kong. I am honored to take part in it.”</p> <p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-51375 size-large" src="https://d2cx26qpfwuhvu.cloudfront.net/worldrowing/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/04162723/Chan-Chi-Fung-1024x768.jpeg" alt="" width="580" height="435" srcset="https://d2cx26qpfwuhvu.cloudfront.net/worldrowing/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/04162723/Chan-Chi-Fung-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https://d2cx26qpfwuhvu.cloudfront.net/worldrowing/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/04162723/Chan-Chi-Fung-300x225.jpeg 300w, https://d2cx26qpfwuhvu.cloudfront.net/worldrowing/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/04162723/Chan-Chi-Fung-768x576.jpeg 768w, https://d2cx26qpfwuhvu.cloudfront.net/worldrowing/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/04162723/Chan-Chi-Fung-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https://d2cx26qpfwuhvu.cloudfront.net/worldrowing/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/04162723/Chan-Chi-Fung-1200x900.jpeg 1200w, https://d2cx26qpfwuhvu.cloudfront.net/worldrowing/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/04162723/Chan-Chi-Fung.jpeg 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 580px) 100vw, 580px" /></p> <p>Athletes were unsure what to expect with the virtual format, but several said that it helped motivate them to keep training.</p> <p>Gold medallist in the lightweight women’s under-23 2000m race, Winne Hung Wing Yan said: “The virtual competition was more exciting and tense than I expected. I could feel the momentum of the opponents through the screen. It was a great honor to have an atmosphere of live racing even under the pandemic.”</p> <p>The open races were won by competitors outside of Hong Kong with the open men’s 2000m race being won by Japanese rower Tatsuya Sakurama in a time of 6:14:3. Saudi Arabia’s large entry finished with success in the women’s open 2000m category when Kariman Abuljadayel won with a time of 7:37.2.</p> <p>“Overall we are very pleased,” said World Rowing Development Consultant and Event Technical Advisor Chris Perry. “We had a diverse range of languages, race categories and time zones and we’re really happy that the vast majority of races went smoothly.”</p> <p>“This event brought people together when we couldn’t be face-to-face,” Perry added.</p> <p>The event also offered masters and para rowing categories as well as 500m distances. In Hong Kong, several ambulance workers took part. Kwan Chak Choi, an ambulance worker for the Hong Kong Fire Department, finished second in the lightweight men’s 500m race.</p> <p>“I felt nervous and excited on the race day,” said Choi. “Because of the pandemic, I did not participate in any competitions for a year and that’s the reason why I was nervous, but it also helped me find the long-forgotten excitement in the competition. Although my result was not the best, the competition motivated me to train more and get prepared for the final.</p> <p>“This is my first time to participate in a live virtual competition,” added Choi. “The feeling is different with that of other indoor rowing competitions I competed in before. I could not see the opponents and the atmosphere could not be compared to the real one. However, this competition allowed me to compete with rowers from all over Asia and even worldwide now, I think this is a very precious experience, especially under the current pandemic situation.”</p> <p>For full results from the event, click here: <a href="http://www.rowing.org.hk/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Official-Results.pdf">http://www.rowing.org.hk/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Official-Results.pdf</a></p> <p>For more information, click <a href="https://worldrowing.com/event/d71c632a-f524-4e7e-8434-c82b817859af">here.</a></p> <p>Qualification for the World Rowing Indoor Championships will continue with the Americas Qualifier from 6-7 February.

All participants must follow the measures in the OC covid-19 Protection Plan at all times, including the wearing of masks at all times except in the boat, on an ergometer or at meals, social distancing and regular disinfection among the other measures published by the OC. The number of people at the venue at any one time will be limited where possible, and as such the venue may not be open for training for crews only competing in the European Rowing Championships until after racing has finished at the Continental Qualification Regatta. Training and classification options for crews only competing at the European Rowing Championships will be published when the detail is finalised.</p> <p>In addition to meeting any local government requirements, each participant at the regatta will be required to complete a Pre-Event Health Questionnaire and Member Federations are obliged to sign a consent form accepting responsibility for their team members. The forms will be sent out to Member Federations directly by the Varese OC and must be completed and returned to the OC by email to <a href="mailto:covidmanager@vareserowing.com">covidmanager@vareserowing.com</a>. In addition, all participation conditions will be explained to participating athletes and officials in a webinar to be organised before travel to the event. To protect the health of all participants, anyone not adhering to the participation conditions will be immediately disqualified and excluded from the event, at the discretion of the World Rowing Executive Committee or European Rowing Board as relevant for the particular event.</p> <p>World Rowing and European Rowing will hold a Video Conference Call for European Member Federations on Tuesday 26 February 2021 at 9:00 hrs CET, as an opportunity for representatives to ask any questions relating to the two regattas to be held in Varese. Details of the video call with Member Federations will be sent by email.</p> <p>The latest Olympic and Paralympic Games qualification system documents are available on the relevant <a href="https://worldrowing.com/event/d52d1147-e2b8-4bc3-9f9b-e6f24cfa41ea">event page on the World Rowing website</a>.</p> <p>World Rowing, European Rowing and the Varese OC continue to monitor the covid-19 situation in Italy as well as the travel situation in Europe, and the latest recommendations from the WHO and local health authorities.

class="wp-caption-text">Grace Prendergast (b), Kerri Gowler (s), Women's Pair, New Zealand, Heats, 2019 World Rowing Cup II, Poznan, Poland</figcaption> </div> </figure> <div class="post-inner thin "> <div class="entry-content"> <p>It has been anything but usual this past Olympiad. With the postponement of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, the race drags on for one more year. Here’s a look back at the last four years in the women’s pair in the hopes of predicting what might happen as we head into the 2021 season.</p> <p><strong>Recap of last four years: </strong>The women’s pair, like the men’s pair, has been a relatively stable boat class over the last quadrennial. New Zealand has dominated much of the competition, with Canada and Australia hot on their tails. Both Canada and Australia have put together new combinations that found speed and rhythm together extremely quickly. The New Zealand duo of Kerri Gowler and Grace Prendergast has been together for longer and they have managed to use that to their advantage to win two of the three World Championship events. Denmark, Spain, and the United States also found medal success, with Romania winning on the European level.</p> <p> </p> <p>2017 World Championships: NZL, USA, DEN, GBR, ESP, GER</p> <p>2018 World Championships: CAN, NZL, ESP, ITA, CHN, IRL</p> <p>2019 World Championships: NZL, AUS, CAN, USA, ESP, ITA</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Fun tidbit: </strong>Historically, many women’s pair combinations have also doubled-up in the women’s eight. Romania is famously known for their ability to medal in both categories. New Zealand and Australia accomplished this feat at the 2019 World Rowing Championships. But this can be difficult at the Olympic Games. Will they continue this into the 2021 season?</p> <p><strong> </strong><strong><em>That oh-so-close finish</em></strong><em>: </em>It wasn’t a medal race, but the B-final at the <a href="https://worldrowing.com/event/1fa9897a-9405-423f-a7a5-2040576911cb">2019 World Rowing Championships</a> was a nail-biter. With qualification spots up for grabs, the top final four crews finished within 1.5 seconds of each other and Chile missed qualifying by just 0.13 seconds.</p> <p><strong>Must watch:</strong> The 2019 European Rowing Championships was one of the closest races in the women’s pair over the last quadrennial. Romania, the Netherlands and Italy went stroke-for-stroke through the finish line. On the beautiful waters of Lucerne, Switzerland, the European athletes fought for gold. <a href="https://www.eurovisionsports.tv/fisa#AQJNX3SV2B">https://www.eurovisionsports.tv/fisa#AQJNX3SV2B</a></p> <p><strong>Quote of the quadrennial: </strong>I was really emotional before the start so I wasn’t sure how that would go but our race went really well and controlled. At the end we just pushed for it with our eyes closed and made it.” Anna Boada Peiro, Spain, bronze, 2018 World Rowing Championships.</p> <p><strong>Olympic qualifiers:</strong> Eleven crews qualified at the 2019 World Rowing Championships (New Zealand, Australia, Canada, United States, Spain, Italy, Romania, Ireland, China, Great Britain, Greece). Two more crews will be added from the 2021 Final Olympic Qualification Regatta.</p> <p><strong>The ramification of the ‘extra year’:</strong> The women’s pair has seen several new additions in the last two years that shook up the field: Australia and Canada. The Australian pair has a cumulative of 3.5 years of international racing experience together. And although the Canadians have more racing experience, they have only been together in the pair for two years. The extra year for these crews may push them to faster speeds than the New Zealanders. But, of course, training in New Zealand has been relatively undisrupted, which may provide them with an advantage going into the 2021 season.</p> <p><strong>Olympic prediction</strong>: We’re likely to see New Zealand, Canada and Australia in the final of the women’s pair. But their places on the podium are definitely not guaranteed. The United States, Spain, Denmark and Italy have all shown top performances. And don’t forget about up-and-coming crews like Chile. In the pair, if a crew manages to find the right rhythm to make the boat sing, they are already in a league of their own.</p> <p> </p> </div> </div> <div class="section-inner"> </div> </article> <hr

class="wp-caption-text">2020 World Rowing Indoor Championships, Paris, France</figcaption> </div> </figure> <div class="post-inner thin "> <div class="entry-content"> <p>The event represents the fourth of five continental qualification events that help determine who will compete in the first-ever virtual <a href="https://worldrowing.com/event/ab9f35fc-2684-4026-a72d-06f644f082dc">World Rowing Indoor Championships</a> from 23 to 27 February 2021.</p> <p>“We’re really pleased with the entry,” says Chris Perry, World Rowing Development Consultant and Technical Advisor to the event. “We weren’t sure what to expect, but it’s encouraging during these difficult times to see such a good response.”</p> <p>Perry says the entry from some middle eastern countries has been particularly successful. “Kuwait and Saudi Arabia both have put forth big entries and Saudia Arabia ran their own indoor championships last year. It is a reflection of their ambition to get more involved in the sport.”</p> <p>Top athletes are among the entries. India’s sensation Dattu Bhokanal is set to compete. Bhokanal finished thirteenth at the Rio <a href="https://worldrowing.com/event/b4f8eca1-d1d1-4242-bc69-c520a03e93eb">2016 Olympic Games</a> in the men’s single sculls, a top finish for India, which made him a national icon.</p> <p>Thailand’s Phuttharaksa Neegree has entered in the women’s lightweight ages 40-49 category. Neegree is a four-time Olympian and one of the most-medalled rowers in Asia both on the indoor rower and on the water. She is still actively competing at age 46 and hopes to make it to one more Asian Games.</p> <p>Hong Kong China will see the participation of their national team athletes, including under-23 lightweight rower Chan Chi Fung who set several world records in his category during the coronavirus lockdown.</p> <p>In the para rowing categories, Korea has entered their top athletes. Korea has one of the most developed para rowing programmes in Asia and is looking to further their progress.</p> <p>The organising committee has been working day and night to ensure that athletes across Asia will be able to participate.</p> <p>“There has been some difficulty in getting the technology set up and, of course, some communication barriers. Asia is very diverse and we have entries from all over. The time zones are also a logistical challenge,” Perry says.</p> <p>In order to ensure a smooth event, the organising committee has run tests together with the timing provider Time Team and Perry says it looks to be going well. Participants from all 14 countries must have the correct information and be able to connect come race day.</p> <p>Teams are using a mixture of creating ‘nodes’ of corona-safe zones and racing from home. In Hong Kong, for example, the national team has set up a closed training centre where athletes and staff reside. They are also tested weekly for the coronavirus. The national team athletes will race from the training centre, while many masters competitors are set to compete from rowing machines at home.</p> <p>“There is nothing else going on at the moment,” Perry explains. “It offers an opportunity to compete in a socially distanced event from home. We received quite some support from the government to help run it. They were willing to support such a unique thing. It’s not possible for many other sports. It’s quite unique that rowing is capable of running such an event.”</p> <p>The racing starts at 13:00 Hong Kong time and the organising committee will set up a live stream as well as commentary during the event.

Switzerland</figcaption> </div> </figure> <div class="post-inner thin "> <div class="entry-content"> <p>Koen Metsemakers admits that he was addicted to rowing from when he picked up an oar as a university student. Last year, in the very short rowing season, Koen became a European Champion for the second time and added to his collection of tow World Championship titles as part of the dominating Dutch men’s quadruple sculls.</p> <p><strong> </strong><strong>World Rowing:</strong> You got to race at the 2020 European Rowing Championships, congratulations on winning gold, what was that like after so long without racing?<br /> <strong>Koen Metsemakers:</strong> It felt great, we really missed the international competition. Although we compete with our teammates, nothings beats racing the world’s best rowers.</p> <p><strong>WR:</strong> What was the biggest change you had to make to your training in 2020 due to Covid-19?</p> <p><strong>KM:</strong> The Dutch government had implemented a lockdown and in the beginning our training locations were closed. The Dutch Rowing Federation provided us with the training equipment we needed but, of course, it was not ideal. Since then we have gradually moved back to our normal training routine, of course respecting all of the national and Rowing Federation Covid rules. Nowadays we can train relatively normal.</p> <p><strong>WR:</strong> Describe how your training works at present. What is your typical day like?<br /> <strong>KM:</strong> In the morning endurance training in the single on the Amstel River and in the afternoon training at the Bosbaan in doubles or cycling. We usually don’t train in the quad until the end of February.</p> <p><strong>WR</strong>: Your men’s quadruple sculls has been on a winning streak since 2018, what do you think has helped in your consistent wins?<br /> <strong>KM:</strong> Our entire sculling team trains in Amsterdam and is very competitive. The internal competition keeps us focused and motivated the outdo each other and ourselves. We all know that no one is guaranteed his spot in any boat, so that usually keeps the pressure on.</p> <p><strong>WR:</strong> What is your favorite rowing moment?<br /> <strong>KM:</strong> Strangely enough it’s not a racing moment. I really enjoy going out on the Amstel early in the morning and seeing the sun rise over the misty fields outside Amsterdam.</p> <p><strong>WR:</strong> How did you first get into rowing?<br /> <strong>KM:</strong> I started rowing when I was in college. A friend of mine suggested rowing to me. She also warned me not to get too involved because she feared I might find it addictive in a way. Obviously I didn’t listen very well.</p> <p><strong>WR:</strong> What inspired you to stick at the sport?<br /> <strong>KM:</strong> I love being out on the water and feel the boat moving through the water and reacting to the crew. Feeling the speed and the joy when everything comes together makes all the training effort worthwhile.</p> <p><strong>WR:</strong> Outside of rowing what do you like to do?<br /> <strong>KM:</strong> A few years ago I got my master’s degree in dentistry. I quickly discovered that I’m not the person who can focus exclusively on rowing, so I started medical school. Besides studying I like to cycle and mountain bike.</p> <p><strong>WR:</strong> Any favorite quotes from your coach?<br /> <strong>KM:</strong> My coach once said during a training I looked like a St. Cuthbert’s duck. He didn’t give an explanation, and to this day neither I nor any of my teammates get the joke.</p> </div> </div> <div class="section-inner"> </div> </article> <hr class="post-separator

class="wp-caption-text">Ricky Nencini (b) and Daniela Nachazelova (s) of the Czech Republic race in their heat in the lightweight women's double sculls at the 2014 World Rowing Championships in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.</figcaption> </div> </figure> <div class="post-inner thin "> <div class="entry-content"> <p>Stories define us – so the saying goes.</p> <p>When we look back at 2020, the big story in sport was one of loss – loss of predictable training due to lockdowns and social distancing; loss of an Olympic Games postponed a year for the first time in history; loss of loved ones in a pandemic that has touched us all.</p> <p>Yet there are also stories of hope – hope for survival through a vaccine against this illness; hope for getting back to ‘normal’; hope that by sharing our stories things can change for the better.</p> <p>In her new book “Women’s Voices in Rowing”, Daniela Nachazelova adds significantly to this narrative of hope. In a series of interviews from late 2019 and throughout 2020, the former Czech rower shares the stories of over a dozen of rowing’s most significant leaders.</p> <p>World Rowing spoke with Nachazelova about writing the book and why these stories of struggle, perseverance and hope are what our sport – and society – needs right now.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Leading lights</strong></p> <p><strong> </strong>“At the beginning, I started with a wish list of people I would like to talk to,” says Nachazelova of planning the book. “I thought, this is my dream team and if they would not be available, I would have to be realistic. Who am I, after all? I don’t have a name, English is not my first language.”</p> <p>Fortunately, her fears were unfounded. “All of them talked to me; that was incredible. They were referring me to other people and they were referring me on to others. It shows how great a community we have.”</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Speaking their truths</strong></p> <p>“I told each of them the same thing,” says Nachazelova, “that I was writing a book of female voices in rowing, that I felt someone should do it and that I would like to talk to them about it.</p> <p>“At first, I just wanted to tell their stories, how they got involved with rowing, what their experience was, just normal stuff,” she says.</p> <p>For all that, some combination of Nachazelova’ receptive listening and open-minded curiosity seems to have put people at their ease in a way that surprised her.</p> <p>“On their own, they started to be really open, to talk about the gender issue, diversity, equality. And I thought, wow, they are the ones controlling how the book is going. Since they were willing to talk about these things so openly, I felt that I had to continue to ask questions.”</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Breaking the silence</strong></p> <p>While the depth of openness may have shocked Nachazelova, there was – sadly –</p> <p>nothing surprising in the difficult details of barriers and burdens that women have universally faced to one degree or another in the pursuit of high performance sport.</p> <p>One point that the book addresses is that the issue of safeguarding is about more than just women’s equality. It is about protecting everyone in sport.</p> <p>Encouraging people to speak up about difficulties, however, means providing a platform as well as a pathway with next steps for resolution. “We need an outside push,” she says. “It starts with the leadership. Hopefully more and more countries will include safeguarding in their agenda.”</p> <p>“It is a huge step that people are talking about it,” she adds, pointing specifically to World Rowing’s recently introduced <a href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/responsibility/safeguarding/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Safeguarding Policy</a>. “If you take step A by talking about things, then you must get ready for steps B and C.”</p> <p>“There is something called the ‘spiral of quietness’ when people are not able to speak up and control their own narrative. Many athletes are not even aware that they [have a voice and a right to speak up].”</p> <p><img loading="lazy" class="wp-image-50820 size-full"

<p>For Nachazelova one part of this process is that athletes must be brave and tell their stories, but equally that their voices be respected and the problems they face be dealt with head on.</p> <p>“Stories can help to make things more accessible,” says Nachazelova, who hopes that women and other historically marginalized groups can find not just inspiration, but a sense of solidarity in the stories of those who have come before.</p> <p>Even with all the supports of a working safeguarding policy in place, “it is about having an athlete who is brave enough to step up,” she says. “It is about speaking your own narrative and not letting others decide it for you.”</p> <p>It is something captured so well in the words of professor and five-time New York Times bestselling author Brené Brown when she said, “Owning our story and loving ourselves through that process is the bravest thing that we will ever do.”</p> </div> </div> <div class="section-inner"> </div> </article> <hr

class="wp-caption-text">Martin Sinkovic (b), Valent Sinkovic (s), Men's Pair, Croatia, 2020 European Rowing Championships, Poznan, Poland</figcaption> </div> </figure> <div class="post-inner thin "> <div class="entry-content"> <p>It has been anything but usual this quadrennial. With the expected wrap up of the Olympic cycle not taking place due to the postponement of the Olympic Games, the lead up continues for one more year.</p> <p><strong>Recap of last four-years: </strong></p> <p>The men’s pair has been one of the more predictable boat classes throughout the last cycle – predominantly due to the success of Croatia’s Sinkovic brothers. But a few other crews have managed to consistently find their way into the A-final, including Italy, New Zealand, Australia and France. The Kiwis had big shoes to fill after the retirement of Eric Murray and Hamish Bond, but Thomas Murray and Michael Brake have been working their way up the leaderboard and rounded of 2019 with a silver medal at the World Rowing Championships.</p> <p>2017 World Championships: ITA, CRO, NZL, FRA, GBR, SRB</p> <p>2018 World Championships: CRO, ROU, FRA, CAN, NZL, ESP</p> <p>2019 World Championships: CRO, NZL, AUS, ITA, ESP, FRA</p> <p><strong>Fun tid bit: </strong>The men’s pair has boasted some of the best rivalries in the sport of rowing: Australia, France, Italy and Great Britain have all played salient roles. But with the rise of the Kiwi pair in 2009, the game changed. The Sinkovic brothers have tried to take on the challenge that the Kiwi’s left behind, but it has not been smooth sailing. With Olympic postponement, they have one more year to prove it.</p> <p><strong> </strong><strong>Closest medal race: </strong>The men’s pair is one of the boat classes with the widest-spread field coming across the finish line. Finishing times are often one to three seconds apart. However the closest medal race in the last quadrennial was at the 2017 World Rowing Championships when Italy beat Croatia by just 0.34 seconds. Italy took the championship title, denying the Sinkovic brothers of the possibility to snatch gold across the quadrennial.</p> <p><strong>Must watch:</strong> The 2017 World Championship A-final is reminiscent of the legendary Olympic race by Jean-Christophe Rolland and Michel Andrieux. The grit and determination in the Italian crew was unmatched. Watch here: <a href="https://www.eurovisionsports.tv/fisa#dm9kOzkxODk2">https://www.eurovisionsports.tv/fisa#dm9kOzkxODk2</a></p> <p><strong>Olympic qualifiers:</strong> Eleven crews qualified at the 2019 World Rowing Championships (Croatia, New Zealand, Australia, Italy, Spain, France, Serbia, Canada, South Africa, Romania, Belarus). Two more crews will be added from the 2021 Final Olympic Qualification Regatta.</p> <p><strong>The ramification of the ‘extra year’:</strong> The 2020 European Rowing Championships may have given insight into the potential upset for the 2021 season. The young Romanian crew of Marius-Vasile Cozmiuc and Ciprian Tudosa beat the Sinkovic brothers by three seconds, who in turn beat the Italian pair of Matteo Lodo and Giuseppe Vicino by one second. This Romanian crew has shown their potential in the last four years, but they may have just scored enough time to realise it before the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. Further, the Sinkovic brothers have struggled with injury – an additional year of sweep rowing will only add pressure to their bodies.</p> <p><strong>Olympic prediction</strong>: As always, it’s tough to call. But in the men’s pair, there are a few crews that cannot be ruled out. Martin and Valent Sinkovic have vast experience and always perform well under pressure. Their shot at Olympic gold is certainly high. But the Kiwis will have had some of the best training conditions and another year under their belt to solidify their performance. And the Australians and the French are likely to give it a good go. Of course, don’t forget about the Romanians who are likely to benefit from the extra year. Despite the relatively spread field, the men’s pair is certainly not a sure-thing.</p> </div> </div> <div class="section-inner"> </div> </article> <hr class="post-separator styled-separator

<figcaption class="wp-caption-text">Kathleen Heddle - Photo Rowing Canada Aviron</figcaption> </div> </figure> <div class="post-inner thin "> <div class="entry-content"> <p>Heddle was one of Canada’s most successful rowers. Her Olympic medals are more remarkable as she accomplished the feat of four medals – three of them gold – at just two Olympic Games. Heddle’s first medals came at Barcelona in 1992 when she won gold in both the women’s pair and eight.</p> <p>Heddle then went on to the Atlanta Olympic Games in 1996 where she again doubled up on events, taking gold in the women’s double sculls and bronze in the women’s quadruple sculls. These medals were as part of her partnership with Marnie McBean with the two of them inspiring many Canadians to take up rowing.</p> <p>Included in the Heddle’s medal collection were four World Championship titles. This success on the water as well as Heddle’s personality outside of the boat led to her being awarded World Rowing’s <a href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/about/awards/thomas-keller-medal/">Thomas Keller Medal</a> in 1999. This award is considered the most prestigious in rowing. Heddle was also a member of World Rowing’s Athlete’s Commission.</p> <p>Heddle was known for her power and tenacity when racing and quiet nature outside of the boat. World Rowing’s Vice President, Canadian Tricia Smith was a friend of Heddle’s and in a statement said, “Kathleen was the greatest of Olympians in every sense of the word and a rock for all who knew her.”</p> <p>“A proud Canadian of such depth of character, she approached everything she did with integrity and grace. Never seeking the limelight and always looking out for others, she represented the best of Olympic values.”</p> <p>Heddle took up rowing as a student at the University of British Colombia. She was in her third year and had missed out on making the varsity volleyball team when a rowing coach spotted her.</p> <p>“I was hooked right away,” Heddle described when she was inducted into the British Colombia Sports Hall of Fame. “I liked the balance between brute strength and power with finesse.”</p> <p>One of Heddle’s first coaches at the University of British Colombia (UBC), Walter Martindale remembers his athlete.</p> <p>“At one point in the spring of 1986 I took video (video was hard to get back then) and on watching it, decided to move Kathleen from 4 to stroke in the UBC novice women’s eight. She gulped and said… “I’ll try.” The eight changed dramatically and had a new-found rhythm. After that row, I told her something along the lines of, “I am going out on a limb here, but what you’ve shown me in the boat has me thinking that, if you want it badly enough, and work hard, you can be the best in the world. 1988 might be too early but I think in 1992 there should be nothing stopping you.”</p> <p>“They were still a novice crew, but in the summer of 1986 they came third in the Canadian Club Championships and second in the intermediate women’s eight at Canadian Henley, with Kathleen stroking.”</p> <p><em>*Credit photo : Rowing Canada Aviron</em></p> </div> </div> <div class="section-inner"> </div> </article> <div class="pagination-wrapper section-inner"> <hr class="styled-separator pagination-separator is-style-wide" aria-hidden="true" /> <nav class="navigation pagination" aria-label="Posts"> <h2 class="screen-reader-text">Posts navigation</h2> <div class="nav-links"><span class="prev page-numbers placeholder" aria-hidden="true"><span aria-hidden="true">←</span> <span class="nav-prev-text">Newer <span class="nav-short">Posts</span></span></span><span aria-current="page" class="page-numbers current">1</span> <a class="page-numbers" href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/2021/01/page/2/">2</a> <a class="next page-numbers" href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/2021/01/page/2/"><span class="nav-next-text">Older <span class="nav-short">Posts</span></span> <span aria-hidden="true">→</span></a></div> </nav> </div> </main> <div class="footer-nav-widgets-wrapper header-footer-group"> <div class="footer-inner section-inner"> <aside class="footer-widgets-outer-wrapper"> <div class="footer-widgets-wrapper"> <div class="footer-widgets column-one grid-item"> <div class="widget widget_search"><div class="widget-content"><form role="search" method="get" class="search-form" action="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/"> <label for="search-form-2"> <span class="screen-reader-text"> Search for: </span> <input type="search" id="search-form-2" class="search-field" placeholder="Search …" value="" name="s" /> </label> <input type="submit" class="search-submit" value="Search" /> </form> </div></div> <div class="widget widget_recent_entries"><div class="widget-content"> <h2 class="widget-title subheading heading-size-3">Recent Posts</h2><nav aria-label="Recent Posts"> <ul> <li> <a href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/2024/11/29/global-canal-rowing-action-concludes-in-baku-azerbaijan-on-the-occasion-of-cop29/">Global Canal Rowing Action Concludes in Baku, Azerbaijan, on the Occasion of COP29</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/2024/11/29/2024-world-rowing-womens-crew-of-the-year-romanias-eight/">2024 World Rowing Women’s Crew of the Year – Romania’s eight</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/2024/11/28/world-rowing-paves-the-way-for-beach-sprint-rowing-at-la-2028-with-attribution-of-world-championships-to-brazil-and-china-for-2025-and-2026/">World Rowing paves the way for Beach Sprint Rowing at LA28 with attribution of World Championships to Brazil and China for 2025 and 2026</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/2024/11/28/coastal-champs-take-on-challenge-prince-albert-ii/">Coastal Champs take on Challenge Prince Albert II</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://worldrowing-admin.soticcloud.net/2024/11/26/where-are-they-now-tom-aggar/">Where are they now?
