Michael Cusack has been appointed incoming Rowing ACT Executive Officer.

Michael will work alongside James Hammond up until 25th July when James departs for Adelaide. This transition period will provide Michael with much of the knowledge that James has acquired in the role during his successful tenure.

Michael comes to the job from his previous role with qualifications and experience as a town planner. Valuable skills that he brings to RACT that are relevant to this job include stakeholder consultation, project management, client management, data collation, quantitative analysis, and liaison with ACT planning authorities.

Michael has been an ACT representative rower, and ACT senior champion as well as a volunteer coach of school junior crews so that he understands the local rowing scene from both the high performance perspective and the challenges associated with novice introductory years.

I think the ACT rowing Community will find Michael easy to deal with and hard working.
As a Committee we look forward to a productive working relationship with Michael.

David Bagnall (President)
