BGS YR9 Rowing WK1

Saturday just gone the boys had their first go in the boat.
Today (Tuesday) was their second go.
co coached with Sophie. 
We just rowed in pairs and they did not seem to be concerned that they did not row as a 4 so we did not suggest it.
The emphasis is on basic technique.
Hand grip.  Basically limited to thumbs on the end and hand close to thumb.
Sequence.  We notice the boys are not getting to full slide but we ignored that.
We focussed  more on rowing in time and just trying to relax.
Also posture.  There is a lot of hunching over.  Just relax and sit up.
