JUNIOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The Junior Development program focuses on fun, fitness, and skills in rowing! Open to athletes aged 11-17 who have some prior rowing experience (e.g., participation in rowing camp, high school rowing). The Junior Development program focuses on building the fundamental skills so athletes can row comfortably in different conditions and with different crew members. Skills competitions (e.g., stationary balance, backing, spinning) are held at least once a week. The program can act as a launchpad for athletes who want to join the club competitive program, as well as be a place for athletes who love rowing but want to participate in other sports and activities as well.
Youth will be supervised by experienced coaches who are qualified in first aid and CPR. When on the water, coaches drive alongside the rowing shells in a fully equipped motorized coach boat that includes life jackets, a whistle and cell phone, and other safety equipment. Coach:Youth ratio of 1:4.
