Heat Safety Guidelines Now Posted

USRowing is pleased to announce that we have developed Heat Safety Guidelines to help identify and mitigate heat illness risk in our sport. The guidelines were developed from the World Rowing Heat Safety Guidelines, the recommendations of the Stringer Institute, and with the USRowing Medical and Safety Committees.

Please review them and provide any feedback and suggestions. We will be incorporating these guidelines into our owned regattas and will work to create a Heat Safety and Acclimatization learning module on the Launch by the end of March 2025.
