ChatGPT The German U23 National Team was medically supported by the practice of Dr. Aust this year. The U23 World Rowing Championships took place on the rowing channel in Plovdiv. A total of 749 athletes from all over the world participated in the event, including the largest team from Germany with 70 athletes and a total of 20 boats. Italy and USA followed.
The preparation for the German U23 national team had already begun in Munich, where the team used the 1972 Olympic course for immediate competition preparation (UWV). Despite gastrointestinal infections and some injuries, the training was successful, and the atmosphere within the extended team of coaches, physiotherapists, and scientists was very good. I joined the U23 National Team on the flight from Munich to Plovdiv.
In Plovdiv, Bulgaria, the teams and coaches, as well as support staff, had to contend primarily with the hot conditions. Fortunately, all races were moved to the morning and early afternoon. Thanks to the good preparation by the DRV officials, the impact was limited. We had sufficient cooling vests, drinks, and ice water available.
The German U23 national team qualified for the A-final in 18 out of 21 boat classes, twelve of which are Olympic boat classes.
U23 national team coach Marcus Schwarzrock expressed satisfaction with the performance:
"I am alrtogether very satisfied. If someone had told me beforehand that we would be racing in 18 A-finals here, then I would not have believed it. That is already a very good result when you enter 21 boat classes, of which 18 make it to the A-final, of which twelve are still Olympic."(Source: rudern.de))
In the end, there were a total of 7 medals, including 2 gold medals, 3 silver medals, and 2 bronze medals.
The practice of Dr. Aust congratulates all athletes on their great performances. It was a pleasure and an honor to support the German U23 National Team at the World Championships. It was fantastic to be part of this event.
