This program is designed for those adult rowers who are looking for more training and racing opportunities with both sprint racing in the spring/summer, and head racing in the fall. Racing is not required, but you will still participate in the masters group training plan. We currently rotate the rowing schedule based on a 9 day “work week”. This results in rowing 6 of 9 days. There may be potential for additional days added to row after the schedule comes out, these decisions will be discussed with the program coordinator.
In order to join the Masters group, prior experience is required. In addition to experience, all Masters must obtain their boaters license prior to rowing as rowers rotate in the safety/coach boat.
We recommend participating in our Recreational Rowing program to gain rowing experience.
Please watch the safety video provided by Rowing Canada for more information before continuing with your registration. Athlete’s who do not watch this video in it’s entirety are not permitted to be on the water.
