Coached Rowing

New in 2026 is what we are calling our Coached Rowing Program.  This program is for you if you are interested in working on your technical skills, improving your general fitness, and having fun, but not racing.  We’re asking that participants commit to 2 team practices/week during the season (spring/summer and fall) and each practice which will have dedicated coaching. We are still finalizing the plans and details but are expecting this to run Tuesday & Thursday evenings and Sunday mornings. Our goal is to keep the coach rower ration below 1:16.  Coaches TBA.

 

Rowers in this program will work on both sweep and sculling skills.  Sweep will focus on improving technique and endurance.  When sculling focusing on improving technique with the goal of getting rowers bow trained and certified.  Everyone will practice proper boat handling and etiquette (including uniform “coxswain commands.”)

 

The season fee will cover the cost of coaching 3x per week, use of the launches, and coxswain gifts.

 

Prior to joining this program, you should have completed a novice season at WRC or other rowing club.
