Recreational & Development (REC / DEV)
Tryouts are not required for Recreational & Development programs. You may proceed with registration. Limited seats.
Our Recreational and Development programs provide an opportunity to experience rowing in a fun, structured coaching environment without the demands of full competitive racing.
Both programs practice together with the same coaching staff and teammates on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Participants choose the schedule that best fits their goals:
- Recreational: Two days per week
- Development: Three days per week
