High School Development

Octuple

Sculling/Sweep Camps

THESE CAMPS ARE NOT FOR RISING 9th GRADERS – THEY SHOULD COMPLETE OUR MIDDLE SCHOOL CAMPS.

WRC’s High School Sculling/Sweep Development Camp is recommended for high school rowers who have completed between one or more seasons of rowing and who want to use the summer to improve their on-the-water speed. These camps are not appropriate for a rower who is looking to be on the water for the first time ever, please contact our Director for different options.

The camp provides a strong emphasis on all aspects of technique combined with competitive training sessions where rowers apply technical improvements and sharpen their racing skills.

You will have the opportunity to row, fours, eights, quads and octuples. The latter two will allow you to learn the fundamentals of sculling on a stable platform. You will then be ready to transition into smaller boats once the camp is finished.

High School Racing Team

We would like to offer athletes the opportunity to race at the Michigan Club Invitational (MCI) regatta, hosted by Ann Arbor Rowing Club each year. Athletes will be racing over 1000m in 3 lanes, it is always well run and a lot of fun!

We require a minimum commitment of:

Session 5

AND

EITHER Session 1, 2 or 4. 

This will allow us to arrange lineups and get everyone ready for the race day appropriately.

This is a great option if you are not ready for our Canadian Henley Camp, but want to focus your summer a little more towards some racing.

There is additional cost to be part of the racing group of $75 (one time fee, NOT per week), to cover entry fees and coach time at the regatta.

MCI will be held Saturday July 20th 2024.
