About Nick Green
Nick Green's international rowing career got off to a flying start in late 1989 when he teamed up with experienced rowers James Tomkins, Mike McKay, and later Andrew Cooper to race in the Coxless Fours as the Oarsome Foursome.
The crew won successive World Championships in 1990 and 1991 and went into the Barcelona Olympics as hot favourites. The crew did not disappoint and Nick took his first Olympic gold medal. Following Barcelona Andrew Cooper retired from the Oarsome Foursome and Drew Ginn took his place in the boat.
Despite taking a break from competitive rowing for two years the new Oarsome Foursome successfully defended their Olympic title in Atlanta at the 1996 Olympic Games. In 1998 the Oarsome Foursome returned to international winning gold at the World Championships.
At the same regatta Nick teamed up with fellow crew member James Tomkins to win gold in the coxed pairs. Nick's preparation for the 1999 season was hampered by a serious back injury, and unfortunately, in September 1999 Nick announced his retirement from the international scene, ending the career of one of Australia's greatest rowers.
Nick is a highly sought-after speaker covering topics such as attitude change, winning attitudes, team work, gaol setting, communication, ownership, responsibility, measurement and performance
