Opportunity Two: Join the Fall Team
You can “try us out” for 2 weeks with no obligation – free of
charge - to see how you like rowing. Come down for the First
Day of Practice, usually the first day of school from 4:00pm to
6:30pm. You can also attend the Open House, which is
usually a week or so after school starts. You can
Contact Us for details on
those dates. You can catch the end of a practice, tour the
boathouse, and talk to parents and coaches. You can also register
for the team at the open house. Fill out the registration forms and
bring them the first day you come to practice.
Opportunity Three: Walk-on
During Fall Season
After the first two weeks of practice in the Fall, it is possible to
join the team at the discretion of the coach. Anyone interested
in joining the team at this point may schedule an
appointment to observe a typical practice and talk with the coaches.
Opportunity Four:
November Tryouts
At the end of the Fall Season, the team becomes open for tryouts
again. A Rowing Tryout Period is held, usually from
mid-November until mid-December. This tryout period is free of
charge, and is a great way to check if you want to try rowing in the
Spring. Please download, fill out, and bring a
Waiver (pdf)
and
Registration (pdf)
on the first day. You will want to dress appropriately for the
weather - sweatpants, wind pants or close fitting shorts are
recommended. After that, you may work out with the team, primarily
in the weight room, over the winter. Please
Contact Us
if you have questions.
Opportunity Five: January
Tryouts
In
early January, usually first week that school starts, the team holds
a second Rowing Tryout Period free of charge. Please
download, fill out, and bring a
Waiver (pdf)
and
Registration (pdf)
on the first day. You will want to dress appropriately for the
weather - sweatpants, wind pants or close fitting shorts are
recommended. After that you may attend the First Two Weeks of
Practice free of charge. Students who played Fall sports or who
missed the chance to join the team during the first season may join
in January. This season tentatively starts the first week in
January. After the first two weeks of practice in the Spring, it is
possible to join the team at the discretion of the coaching staff,
but normally the team is closed to walk-ons at that point.
