FAQ’s:
How young is too young to participate in the sport of rowing?
It all depends on the athleticism, size and willingness to learn of the participant. Usually, 12 years old is a good starting point. But we have had rowers as young as 9 years old row in our summer program. The best thing to do is to contact CBC with any questions.
Does the participant need to know how to swim?
YES! The participant needs to be a competent swimmer with the ability to tread water for 7 minutes.
What do rowers need to do in order to be prepared for their rowing practice?
– Arrive 5-10 minutes before practice starts.
– Have a complete meal and healthy snack and be well hydrated before arriving at CBC.
– Pack running shoes and refillable water bottle for every practice (required)
– Wear tight-fitting athletic clothing (to avoid loose clothing getting caught in equipment).
