Who it’s for
The Development Team is where most girls start rowing. It’s for any girl in grades 7 to 12 who is learning to row and isn’t ready yet, in fitness or in time, for the Racing Team. Coxswains and rowers learn the fundamentals, the CBC rowing technique, and what it means to be part of a team. New rowers can start in any season. The coaches place each girl on the team that fits, and girls move up to the Racing Team as they grow.
When we practice
- Fall and spring: three afternoons a week (Monday, Thursday and Friday), 4:15 to 6:15 PM
- Winter: three afternoons a week, 4:30 to 6:00 PM
- Summer: weekday mornings, 9 AM to noon
We can adjust times for athletes who live farther away or get out of school later.
How to start
A new rower can come try a practice free. Email info@ctboatclub.org to set up her first day. When you’re ready, everything you need is on the Registration page.
