Competition Management by Sport 336 51 11.15 Rowing The rowing competition was held at the Han River Regatta Course from September 19 to 25, drawing 660 athletes and 203 officials from 38 countries. The men's events covered coxed fours, double sculls, coxless pairs, single sculls, coxed pairs, coxless fours, quadruple sculls, and eights. The women's events totalled six, including coxed fours, double sculls, coxless pairs, single sculls, quadruple sculls and eights. The German Democratic Republic captured eight of the 14 golds at stake to dominate the rowing competition. Italy took home two golds, while the U.S.S.R. and the U.S.A. failed to win even a single gold. 11.15.1 Competition Preparations —————————————– The SLOOC organized a 14-member rowing competition preparation team early in 1988, to begin concerted work on the preparations for rowing competition on the Han River Regatta Course. In June of the same year, the SLOOC activated the Rowing Operations and filled the key posts. The organizational hierarchy of the operations were comprised of a commissioner, secretary-general, director, six managers and 29 officers. The staffing covered 426 personnel, including eight staff members of the SLOOC, 214 support personnel, 203 volunteers and one temporary employee. Event-specific individual job education was conducted in July 1988. As the Olympic Village was opened on September 3, the training courses were opened to rowers. The Han River Regatta Course, located in Misari, Dongbu-up, Kwangju-gun, Kyonggi-do, was completed in June 1986, and was the venue of the rowing competition of the Seoul Asian Games. The regatta course underwent a massive refurbishing for the Olympic competitions. The course, 140 meters wide, 2,212 meters long, and 3 meters deep, has six lanes and two auxiliary lanes, and auxiliary facilities included a headquarters building with an area of 2,155 square meters, a building for rowers and a boat house with an area of 5,142 square meters. The facilities also included a five-storey finishing tower of 176 square meters, a starting tower of 30 square meters, six halfway timing places, and three temporary boat houses. A riverside course of 25,800 square meters in Hail-dong, Kangnam-gu, Seoul was available for training. The course was also used to train for canoeing. The rowing equipment complied with the rules of the FISA. <strong>Part</strong>icipating teams brought in their own rowing boats. For those NOCs which were unable to bring in their own boats, the SLOOC set aside 23 boats procured from the Samhwa Imsan Company. Five boats for technical officials, three auxiliary boats and four rescue boats were manufactured by Yamaha of Japan. Other general implements, including 253 merry-go-rounds, 1,200 rubber belts and 10 life jackets, were furnished by the Hyundai Sports Co. of Korea. 11.15.2 Conduct —————————————– of the Competitions Each NOC was allowed to enter one team in each event. The men's events saw participation by 37 countries, and women's events by 20 countries. The number of competitors totalled 450 in the men's events and 210 in the women's events. In the men's events, entries totalled 532, including 71 for the coxed fours, 38 for double sculls, 41 for coxless pairs, 25 for single sculls, 45 for coxed pairs, 64 for coxless pairs, 52 for quadruple sculls, 99 for eights, and 97 substitute competitors. In the women's events, the entries totalled 259, including 49 for the coxed fours, 22 for double sculls, 20 for coxless pairs, 15 for single sculls, 38 for quadruple sculls, 70 for eights, and 45 substitute competitors. The rowers competed in 14 events on the 2,000meter course. When the number of the participating teams in any event was fewer than 10, the competition proceeded from preliminary heats to repechage and finals. When the number of participating teams in any event exceeded 10, semifinals were added to the procedures, starting from the preliminary heats and then proceeding to repechage, the semifinals and the finals. The competitions were held for seven days from September 19 to 25; preliminary heats were held on September 19 to 20, repechage on September 21, semifinals on September 22, racing for the seventh through 12th places on September 23, and finals for the first through sixth places on September 24 and 25. The FISA was represented by its president, secretary-general and two technical delegates. Twenty judges were assigned to the 14 events to supervise the starting signals, starting line and the finishing line. Five Korean judges also presided over the competitions. The German Democratic Republic placed first in medal standings, with eight golds, one silver and one bronze; Italy placed second, with two golds; followed by Rumania with one gold, four silvers and one bronze; and the Federal Republic of Germany, with one gold, one silver and one bronze. Italy's three Abbagnale brothers captured two golds in the coxed pair and the quadruple sculls.
