Selection Development Camp is focused on helping athletes build the skills they need to achieve their rowing aspirations. Through a combination of small boat training and education, athletes will be able to push through to the next level of competition. Coaches will use the camp to identify athletes who may be invited to the 2025 U19 Selection Camp. Very high performing athletes may get invited to the 2024 U19 Selection Camp.
Applications are closed for 2024.
All coaches on staff are required to have a First Aid/CPR certification, SafeSport training, Boater Safety education, and a detailed background check. All of our coaches are USRowing Level 2 certified and many of them have completed the USRowing Level 3 certification – the highest level certification available for coaches in the United States. The staff has a plethora of coaching experience, covering introductory youth levels through high-performance international rowing.
