Risk There have been no reported accidents during the period, though there have been a few 'near-misses'. Ivlembership The club still represents a mix of age and ability, and we feel that we meet our objectives of providing hea Ithy recreation for all the community. The mix however is not idea l as shown in the membershi p analysis. We need to address this and will be actively seeking to encourage involvement and commitment of male and young rowers. Our junior membership grew during the year with a welcome influx of young and able rower5 aged the 12 to 13. Many of the 'old hand, Juniors have passed over to be Cadets and are actively pursui ng trai ning and competitive rowing.
