WELCOME FROM THE HEADMASTER Rowers, Parents, Coaches and Old Boys, It was wonderful to be able to share with you several weeks ago the traditional start of the season with the blessing of the fleet and prayers from the Chaplain. I took the opportunity then to welcome you back to the Shed for what promises to be a benchmark season for TSS Rowing, and to outline several of my hopes for the 2010 season. As Headmaster I will judge the success of the season on three key criteria. Firstly, how well the Shed rates as a positive and productive place for boys to be. This requires the boys to look after each other and encourage each other; the coaches to treat boys with respect and be positive and productive role models; and the parents to also model cooperation and positive relationships, and sometimes to keep any little disagreements they may have with coaches and strategies in perspective, and speak to the Director of Rowing if they have concerns. Secondly, I hope to see many more boys involved in Rowing this season, and more crews in races. I strongly believe if we get the first criteria above 'right', then the second criteria will flow naturally. Thirdly, we do need to work to lift our results from last season in the Head of the River. Again, I believe if the Shed is a positive, productive and happy place to be, boys will join up and stay involved, more crews will be fielded, and our results will improve as a result. Work hard boys, develop that self‐discipline so needed to be a successful rower, and a successful person, and lead yourself and others by being an encouraging and helpful rower. Best wishes for a great season. Greg Wain Headmaster 3
