world junior rowing championships history

2005 World Junior Championships– Brandenburg Germany

The Junior Championships were held from 1st-6th August 2005 (inclusive) at Brandenburg Germany. This was shortly after the World Rowing Under 23 Championships in Amsterdam.

Selections

The selections for these Championships took place at the Sydney International Regatta Centre on 15-17th April 2005, immediately following the selection of the World Championship and Under 23 teams.

Racing

The results at the Juniors was below expectations as the selection criteria aims at medals with crews at least finishing the A final. Although these Championships are a highly competitive event and of a high standard, only the women's double from Victoria made the final. The selectors, coaches and rowers will be looking for better in future years.

Despite these results, it proved to be valuable international experience for our rowers who gained much from the racing.
