Summer 2023 – Open (Post High School) Registration

Description

The Open Team is for athletes who are 19 before December 31, 2023. 

The summer season is designed for athletes with at least one season of rowing experience who want to continue their growth and development.  During the summer, the program is organized to support a large number of athletes, and serve every level and individual schedule. Our racing team focuses on sweep rowing, while giving athletes opportunities to try their hand at sculling and small boats based on interest.

How will the Selection Process Work?

We ask that you select which program you feel most comfortable in when you register.  Within the Competitive program, we will have an evaluation period during the first two weeks of the season.  Athletes are asked to be available for practice during that time. If you are unavailable we will complete placement within your cohort when you can join the team.  Evaluation will include on-the-water evaluations of skill and strength as well as erg testing.  This selection process will allow us to provide consistent and dedicated training at every level. There is potential for movement between programs through the summer as athletes progress.
