Here is one for the “statisticians” and “overthinkers” among you (as I am).
Ever wondered how your crew stacks up against the competition before race day?
Our Theoretical Crew Comparison Tool gives coaches a quick, data-driven way to compare crews and get a feel for the contest ahead. Of course, this is not a perfect science, but it gives us some real numbers-based insights.
By combining each rower’s years of racing experience with their official Rowing Victoria score (based on wins and losses), the tool creates an easy-to-read profile for every crew. Totals and averages are calculated automatically, so you can line up multiple crews side by side and instantly see where the strengths and weaknesses might lie.
Why use it?
- Coach insight – Gain a clearer picture of crews you may not know well.
- Motivation tool – Share comparisons with your athletes to sharpen focus and boost confidence.
- Simple to use – Just enter names, experience, and RV scores. The tool does the rest.
- Flexible – Works for doubles, quads, and larger boats.
While no spreadsheet can predict the exact result on the water, this tool gives coaches a valuable perspective for planning, preparation, and motivation.
