Selection Camp

The 2025 U19 Selection Camp will be composed of athletes identified and invited to race at the U19 World Rowing Championships.

In partnership with the USOPC, the USRowing Pathways Program is a multi-phased, age-based approach to developing athletes in the safest, most productive way possible. USRowing identifies talented athletes with the potential to grow within the greater National Team system. We provide these athletes with challenging, yet developmentally appropriate opportunities.
