Dale Maher, the New Zealand lightweight single-sculling champion, prepares for a training row at Kerrs Reach. Maher, aged 25, was named last week in the New Zealand Commonwealth Games team, and hundreds of training kilometres lie ahead of him during the winter. Both Maher and the New Zealand lightweight coxless four for Edinburgh will train at Kerrs Reach with Mr Doug Burrowes, of Christchurch, as their coach. Maher, the Union club captain, has had a good year. As well as winning the championship lightweight single sculls for the first time, and being nominated for the games without having to attend the national rowing trials, he has been named as the Canterbury “Rower of the Year.” Photograph by JANE HEALEY
