Introducing our new Club Captain - Jim Marino

Following an extensive search, the Board of Directors of SCRC is pleased to announce they have hired Jim Marino as the full-time Club Captain.

Jim has been standing in for Club Captain as a volunteer over the past 15 months and has worked with our coaches and athletes to provide safe and responsible access to rowing even as Covid mandated severe restrictions. 

Jim's legacy with the Club covers over 40 years. During that time he has been a coxswain, rower, coach, member of the Board and served 5 years as SCRC President. 

He is a FISA and RCA Umpire and has served on the Board of CSSRA and CHRC. During his time as a pilot, he was also VP High Performance for the Singapore Rowing Association from 2003 to 2013.

As we begin to rebuild the Club following the impact of COVID we look forward to Jim's strong commitment and leadership. Please join me in congratulating Jim on his new full-time position as Club Captain.
