Le rameur Grant Main a fait partie de l’\u00e9quipage canadien du huit \u00e0 Los Angeles 1984<\/a>, o\u00f9 la finale a \u00e9t\u00e9 la course la plus enlevante de toutes les \u00e9preuves masculines d’aviron \u00e0 ces Jeux. Le Canada et les \u00c9tats-Unis ont \u00e9t\u00e9 au coude \u00e0 coude pendant pratiquement toute la course jusqu’\u00e0 ce que les Canadiens, qui avaient fini au deuxi\u00e8me rang dans leurs vagues du premier tour et au rep\u00eachage, devancent de justesse les favoris locaux am\u00e9ricains et provoquent la surprise en obtenant la m\u00e9daille d’or par une marge de seulement 0.42 seconde. Bien que cet \u00e9quipage ait \u00e9t\u00e9 rassembl\u00e9 seulement pour 1984, Main, ainsi que ses co\u00e9quipiers Dean Crawford<\/a>, Mark Evans<\/a>, Mike Evans<\/a>, Blair Horn<\/a>, Brian McMahon<\/a>, Kevin Neufeld<\/a>, Paul Steele<\/a> et Pat Turner<\/a> avaient concouru au sein d’autres \u00e9quipages avant 1984. Il s’agissait de la premi\u00e8re m\u00e9daille d’or olympique du Canada en aviron depuis celle d\u00e9croch\u00e9e par George Hungerford<\/a> et Roger Jackson<\/a> \u00e0 l’\u00e9preuve du deux sans barreur \u00e0 Tokyo 1964<\/a>. \u00c0 S\u00e9oul 1988<\/a>, Main a pris la sixi\u00e8me place du huit avec Andy Crosby<\/a>, Jason Dorland<\/a>, McMahon, Neufeld, Jamie Schaffer, Steele, Don Telfer<\/a> et John Wallace<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Main a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 ramer pour le Canada aux Championnats du monde de 1983, finissant alors huiti\u00e8me dans l’\u00e9preuve du huit. Apr\u00e8s les Jeux de Los Angeles en 1984, il a pris particip\u00e9 aux Championnats du monde \u00e0 l’\u00e9preuve du quatre sans barreur, terminant cinqui\u00e8me en 1985 et sixi\u00e8me en 1986, il \u00e9tait de retour au huit en 1987, l\u00e0 o\u00f9 son embarcation a fini cinqui\u00e8me. Aux Jeux du Commonwealth de 1986, Main a d\u00e9croch\u00e9 une m\u00e9daille d’or \u00e0 l’\u00e9preuve du quatre sans barreur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dipl\u00f4m\u00e9 en \u00e9conomie de l’Universit\u00e9 de Victoria, Main a travaill\u00e9 dans la fonction publique en Colombie-Britannique au d\u00e9but des ann\u00e9es 1990 apr\u00e8s qu’il eut pris sa retraite de la comp\u00e9tition. Il a \u00e9t\u00e9 vice-pr\u00e9sident de Partnerships Services BC pendant six ans, apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 sous-ministre de la Vie saine et du Sport, ainsi que sous-ministre du D\u00e9veloppement de la communaut\u00e9, du sport et de la culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Main a \u00e9t\u00e9 intronis\u00e9, avec les autres membres du huit m\u00e9daill\u00e9 d\u2019or olympique de 1984 au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e des sports de la Colombie-Britannique en 1985, au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e olympique du Canada en 2003 et au Temple de la renomm\u00e9e de l’aviron canadien en 2019. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
