Competitive Rowing

Masters

GWC is working toward offering a competitive training program for rowing this fall/winter in preparation for regatta season.  Masters rowing is for individuals 27 years of age or older who want to take their skills to the next level and participate in competitions. Stay tuned for updates on upcoming programs!

Juniors

This program is for the experienced high school rower who is looking to expand his or her rowing skills and love of the sport.  The coaches will encourage and supervise small boat rowing for those with sculling ability.  For athletes new to sculling, coaches will provide initial exposure to the sport.  The program will provide the athlete with the opportunity to develop technically and to build fitness.  Athletes will train 5 days/week; small group practices will be scheduled 2 additional times per week. 

The junior athletes will attend the USRowing Club Nationals (July 16-20 in Camden, NJ) with up to 14 athletes selected for Empire State Games (trials June 21; Games are July 23-25 in Binghamton, NY). Current plans also include the Royal Canadian Henley (August 5-10 in St. Catherines, Ontario).

Included in the program fee is a racing shirt. Regatta expenses are an additional cost and based on the number of races entered.

PLEASE NOTE: for week one, both men and women will practice from 3:45 - 5:45PM
