USRowing collects erg scores for all athletes who want to be considered for the national team. Scores will be considered for discretionary invitations to selection camps. USRowing expects athletes to submit at least one 6k and one 2k during the seven-month period in which the data will be collected. If an athlete wishes to submit scores, it must be submitted before the last day of the month and will be reviewed within the next seven days.
Erg Testing Requirements
There are a few ways you can connect with other Para rowers:
1. Update your USRowing member profile and be sure to select Para in your profile.
2. Compete at a USRowing or other regatta. Eligibility requirements to compete are HERE. Regattas are a great way to meet other athletes in your Para rowing sport class. USRowing events offer a range of indoor and on-water events for rowers with disabilities. For a complete list of Para rowing events, please visit: https://www.usrowing.org/competitions
3. Update your erg score to be considered for an upcoming Para rowing camp.
No. Since there is not currently a U19 or a U23 World Championships for Para rowers, we do not differentiate by age for our Selection or Development camps.
Boston is the designated Training Center for the Para National Team, and athletes who are training full time at an international level are invited to train in Boston on a short term or long-term basis. While residing in Boston and training at the Training Center full time is not required, it is important for athletes to come together and work with the HP staff.
No, coxswains for the PR3 Mixed 4+ are not required to have a disability, and therefore, do not go through classification. Coxswains for the PR3 Mixed 4+ may be of either gender.
If you are classified with a status of “confirmed” it is considered valid for the duration of your rowing career. If you are classified with a status of “review” with a date, you will need to be reclassified again within your review window, or at your first competition after that date.
USRowing recommends the following erg targets for athletes who wish to compete at a high level. The scores are targets, and not cut off points, and the age and experience level of the athlete should be taken into account when assessing athlete potential.
