High School (9th – 12th grade, ages 14+)
Racing Team: For the experienced rower who likes competition and training at a high level and is willing to travel around the region for regattas on many weekends during the season.
Novice/U15/U16: Competitive Program for rowers ready to transition from development to high performance. Athletes in this program commit to 5 practices a week and 2 races per season. The program will focus on building the skills and fitness needed to compete at the high performance level.
Coxswain: The coxswain is a driver, motivator and spirit of the team. Without them, the rowers would just be going backwards.
Rec Team: For the experienced rower who would like to train, but does not want to or have the availability to race, the Rec Team might be right for you. Click here for more info.
Development: For the new high school rower that has little to no racing experience or for the athlete who loves rowing but is not ready for the commitment of Racing Team (Two week Learn to Row assessment required, LTR fees will be applied to the cost of the program).- click here!
