Stuart Cain
I
have been teaching rowing for over a decade and I am acting as a
professional rowing coach for the past six years. During my coaching
career I have worked with a variety of schools, university's and clubs
which gives me extensive experience in teaching diverse skill sets
including novices, club level, pre-elite to elite level athletes. I am
also training special needs athletes. As a British Rowing accredited
coach I hold a number of qualifications including ‘Strength &
Conditioning’ and ‘Level 2’ coaching certificates. Currently I am the
Head Coach of the Cambridge ’99 Junior program where I prepare different
age groups to race at national level competitions. I am experienced in
coaching both, sweep and sculling techniques. Overall, my goal is to
teach the skills of the sport to those I work with by taking into
account their long term athletic development, allowing them not only to
reach great successes while remaining injury free but also to enjoy the
whole experience of rowing. It is my mission to create athletes with a
positive outlook on their rowing experience and take what they have
learned about themselves as a positive influence into other areas of
their lives.
