.Horacio Tendilla new ORC Director of Rowing/Head Coach

October 26, 2010

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Horacio Tendilla as the new Head Coach and Director of Rowing at the Ottawa Rowing Club.  His selection is a result of a search that yielded a number of high quality candidates.

Horacio has been a member of the ORC for two years now, participating in club activities as an athlete, coach and volunteer.  He came to us from Mexico where he began his rowing career with Club Espana A.C. in 1982.  He spent many years on the Mexican national team, competing in world championships and other elite regattas, which included a number of wins at the Royal Canadian Henley.  His coaching experience includes being a former Head Coach of Club Espana and acted in an advisor and support role to the lightweight 2X at the Sydney Olympics.

Since his arrival at the ORC he has demonstrated a great passion for developing athletes, young and old. Not only is he a master technician, but he also has clear and comprehensive ideas for the ORC based upon strengthening the club members’ identity, develop personality for all athletes, and establish cohesion between the different programs.  We will arrange a session sometime later in November for Horacio to present his goals and objectives to the membership.

Horacio’s official start date will be announced in November.  In the meantime, please join me in congratulating Horacio and welcoming him as our new Head Coach.
