摘要

轻量级赛艇——在赛艇通常分为两类的分类系统中,最常用的重量类别术语——在加拿大和美国几乎所有级别的赛艇中都面临着被淘汰的可信威胁。与减肥相关的健康问题反映了轻量级赛艇最具问题的方面,在这种情况下,人们在运动中必须容忍的可接受的伤害范围受到了质疑。此外,这样的类别保护似乎是不必要的,特别是对于几乎与开放量级对手一样具有竞争力的轻量级选手。这引发了对这些类别背后的目的和政策的反思。重量分类的理由是不足的,或者只是在现状下被认为是合法的。在没有任何关于这个话题的建设性辩论的情况下,我将试图阐明被忽视的理由,为什么轻量级赛艇应该存在,尽管它有明显的问题。在此过程中,将提出进一步改进轻量级赛艇规则和政策的建议。

In Defense of Lightweight Rowing
ABSTRACT Lightweight rowing – the most commonly used term for the weight category in rowing’s often bifurcated categorisation system – is under credible threat of being eliminated at virtually all levels of rowing in Canada and the U.S. The health concerns associated with weight loss reflect the most problematic aspects of lightweight rowing, where the acceptable limits of harm that one must tolerated in sport is brought into question. Also, such category protection seems arguably unnecessary, especially for lightweights who are nearly as competitive as their openweight counterparts. This prompts reflection on the purpose and policies behind these categories. The justification for weight categories is scant or has simply been assumed as legitimate within the status quo. In the absence of any constructive debate on the topic, I will attempt to articulate the neglected rationale for why lightweight rowing ought to exist despite its apparent problems. In doing so, suggestions for further rules and policy improvements to lightweight rowing will be identified.
