Informazioni sull?autore

Bill Sayer is the former master in charge of rowing at St Edward&;s School, Oxford, and at Shrewsbury School, two of Britain&;s premier rowing schools. After rowing and sculling with some success at Southampton, Bangor and Cambridge universities, he rowed, sculled and coached at a number of clubs. He has had many coaching successes in both rowing and sculling over the years, including national championships, international regattas and Henley Royal Regatta. His record-breaking age group crews have won many National Schools regatta and Schools Head titles across a range of boat types. Crews and former pupils under his guidance have frequently represented England and Great Britain and include World Championship medallists and champions. In 1988 as chief coach he was responsible for the selection and training of the very successful British junior teams in the World Championships and other international events. As a biologist he is particularly interested in the scientific basis of modern rowing training and equipment, and he has even made some high-performance racing boats to his own designs, using advanced materials and methods of construction.
