Fall
REGISTRATION WILL OPEN APPX. END OF JULY, CHECK BACK SOON!
Fall is a beautiful time to row! The season starts warm with our rowers wearing tank tops and shorts as they watch the changing of colors on the Cooper River, and ends in mid-November with the potential for early snow, coaches and athletes dressed in layers. We offer both a competitive season and a non-competitive program.
Competitive Team: This is for returning and new-to-rowing 8th-12th graders who want to bond with teammates while learning about themselves and their capabilities. The season starts in early September and runs through mid-November, including a 2-week tryout period for novices and those new to CJRC. Mandatory practices are six days a week. The emphasis for the fall season is learning, strength training, and improving technique on the water - and, of course - there will be racing!
**For U23 opportunities, please email mrc.coopercommodores@gmail.com
Developmental Team: We offer a non-competitive Fall program for middle and high school athletes who want to learn or improve their rowing/coxing skills. While great athletes come in all shapes and sizes, our rowers typically share exceptional height, power, and athleticism, physical strength and mental toughness. Please note that membership on the Development Team does not guarantee progression onto the Competitive Racing Team. These Fall classes will be held on both land and in the water -- love of the sport while learning is the main focus!
