As many of you may know, my name is Hannah Stanley.  I have been an on and off member of Balmain since 2005.

The point is: I LOVE SCULLING. 

Are there any women out there who are interested in making a sculling group?  I am part of (and chime into) squads, which mainly focus on crew rowing.  Whilst I love crew rowing, I believe the greatest way for me to improve my rowing is to scull.

Although I don't know about coaching etc, I would love to start up a sculling group, where we can work off each other.  THIS IS NOT A PADDLE - I want this to be a squad similar to Keith's, minus the manliness and hearing aids.  I want to develop a really competetive base of scullers, so that eventually we can build up and make our 'scratch crew' regattas more competitive.

Anyway, my details should be on the website, if not:

Please, please PLEASE let me know, because I am really excited about this.

You must be capable in a scull (thinking 1-2 laps of UTS?), and if you fall in, must be able to get back in (unless we can get us a coach).  I'm sorry there are so many requirements.  But I guess this will be named the 'Intermediate Women's Sculling Group', so a level of competency will be required.

Ugh. That sounds mean. I hope that makes sense.

Thank you (for the ramble, soon to be deleted)
