Winter Rowing League
2010-2011
Responding to strong interest in winter rowing fitness and technique development, TRRA offers a program that provides participants with a winter fitness regimen, as well as prepares rowers for the summer season. The Winter Rowing League (WRL) is offered in three sessions during the winter, each season consisting of six weekly practices for any skill level. Come alone or with your summer teammates and company co-workers.
The class will be broken into three divisions: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced.
Beginner - Designed for all newcomers to rowing looking to get involved with the sport, but either still want to learn what it's all about, or are looking for a place to start. Practices will emphasize proper technique, rowing together, and proper instruction and use of common rowing commands.
Intermediate - Perfect for those who already know how to properly row but still need a little work before confidently calling yourself a Rower! This class will skip past the basics and jump right into the instruction and drills required to bring their stroke up to the next level. Prerequisite - Prior rowing experience required
Advanced - The next level. This is the class you want to be in if you're looking to stay in shape during the off season and learn the finer points of rowing that seperate the good from the great. Prerequisite - Two seasons on the water
There is a minimum number of participants needed to hold the class. TRRA will notify anyone who is in a class that needs to be canceled. This does not happen very often.
If you missed your opportunity to participate in the Winter Rowing League, please consider the Summer Rowing League. Novices and Experienced rowers are welcome!
