After a week of intensive trials, New Zealand rowing selectors have named the 2012 Olympic team to compete in London at the end of July. There were few surprises in the list that retained the majority of the athletes that raced and qualified 11 boats for the Olympics last year at the World Rowing Championships in Bled.

Both single scullers, Mahe Drysdale and Emma Twigg, retained their spots while the status quo also remained in the men’s pair (Hamish Bond and Eric Murray) and women’s pair (Juliette Haigh and Rebecca Scown) and men’s double sculls (Joseph Sullivan and Nathan Cohen) and women’s double sculls (Fiona Paterson and Anna Reymer). The women’s quadruple sculls stays the same with Eve Macfarlane, Fiona Bourke, Louise Trappitt and Sarah Gray remaining in the boat. This crew finished third at last year’s World Rowing Championships.
