Elizabeth (Liz) Kell (2001) Multi-award winning rower, Elizabeth (Liz) Kell (2001) represented Australia in Rowing at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Liz enrolled into Pre Kindergarten at 糖心Vlog in 1979 and completed her HSC in 2002. In 2003, Liz received the Sydney Olympic Park Outstanding Talent Award after winning a gold medal in the women’s double scull race at the World U/23 Regatta. Just a few weeks later, she helped Australia qualify the boat for the 2004 Athens Olympic Games in the women’s double scull at the Senior World Championships in Italy. Although she qualified as a member of the 2004 Australian Olympic Team, she injured her shoulder in a horse riding accident and had to withdraw. 2006 was a big year for Liz. She and partner Brooke Pratley won the 2006 World Championships in the Double Scull; she won the Female Rower and Crew of the Year awards at the Rowing Australia ‘2006 Australian Rower of the Year Awards’; and at the NSW Rowing Awards, Liz won the award for NSW Oarswoman of the year 2005-6. (She also won the 2006-7 Award the following year.) In 2007, lumbar disc degeneration and resulting surgery forced Liz to switch to sweep rowing. And in 2008, Liz made her Olympic debut in the eight with coxswain at the 2008 Beijing Games.
