MIDDLE SCHOOL CREW

Looking for a fun, challenging, and totally new experience? Our Middle School Beginner Rowing Program is the perfect introduction to the sport of rowing—designed just for 7th and 8th graders.

 

Led by experienced coaches in a supportive environment, our program offers step-by-step instruction in a low-pressure, team-focused setting. Practices focus on teamwork, coordination, proper technique, and fitness, all while introducing kids to a unique and rewarding sport.

​

What They'll Learn

  • Rowing Basics: Coaches will teach proper technique and form in a fun, supportive way.

  • Boat Handling: Students will learn how to carry, launch, and care for rowing equipment safely.

  • Water Safety: We emphasize safety at every step so rowers feel comfortable and confident on the water.

​​

Whether your child is trying rowing for the first time or just wants to get outside and be part of a team, this program builds skills, confidence, and friendships on and off the water.

​

UA Crew operates as a club sport at the Middle School level.
