The New Zealand team for the 2011 season has been selected following a week of intensive trials at the national base in Karapiro.


The elite line up for the team includes the return of 2008 Olympians James Dallinger and Carl Meyer. Both Dallinger and Meyer are World Champions from 2007 and raced in the men’s four at the Beijing Olympics. However a disappointing seventh place finish caused both rowers to step back and reflect. Dallinger and Meyer have now made their way back into a new-look four. Last year at the World Rowing Championships, the four finished with bronze making the job to get back on the team tougher for Dallinger and Meyer. They will join with Ian Seymour and Tobias Wehr Candler in the 2011 four.

Seymour and Wehr Candler move from last year’s men’s eight which raced at the World Rowing Championships in the final. The 2010 bronze medal four of Jade Uru, Hamish Burson and David Eade move into the eight with fourth member, Simon Watson, who is currently injured, becoming a reserve.
