The much foreshadowed change for club mlember Noel Donaldson from the Victorian Institute of Sport to Rowing Victoria has been made. 

The following message from Noel has been received.

The VIS rowing program has changed direction to a model of providing support for categorised high performance rowers via an Individual Scholarship Program rather than the traditional rowing program. As such Rowing Victoria are now charged with the responsibility of managing the HP program in Victoria.
 
This should be a seamless transition which will see me move to a very similar role with Rowing Victoria – in the building next door! Therefore this email account will not be valid from the 1st November.
 
Thank you to the VIS for all you have done and will continue to do for our athletes.
 
My new contact details are found below.
