Show Notes

After three days of yelling on the bank at BUCS, you'll have to excuse Fergus' voice...

This week Fergus is joined by Ais Green, Captain at Mortlake and Tom Copeland, Women's Coach at Cantabrigian RC. We discuss body positivity in rowing, weighing athletes, creating a culture of success that doesn't revolve around winning and some differences between men's and women's programmes.

This episode is sponsored by Fulham Reach BC. Fulham Reach Boat Club is a charity that exists to deliver Rowing for All.  They believe that everyone in society should have the chance to get on the water and learn the true meaning of teamwork, focus and confidence.  Each year they help over 1,000 local state school children, ex-prisoners from five institutions and more than 200 members of the local community get onto the water and take part in this incredible sport.  If you would like to help support their vision by becoming a Friend of FRBC please do head to the website and check out www.fulhamreachboatclub.co.uk/friend
