Rowing is not for everyone, but everyone can benefit from rowing! Our competitive team has multiple boats that are ranked, and how they are ranked can change from one practice to the next and race to race. It is based on what we are prioritizing for a given race. 

The number one characteristic that CJRC looks for when an athlete joins our competitive team is someone who fully embraces our motto of "Love, Trust, and Hard Work". "Love" the sport and your crew. "Trust" your crew and coach. "Work Hard" to earn your crew's trust. You can't rely on your team to carry you through in rowing. You are part of the "crew" and must put in the same effort as everyone else.

We have had athletes come to us from the following sports:

• Baseball
• Basketball
• Cross Country
• Field Hockey
• Football
• Lacrosse
• Soccer
• Swimming (one of our top draws is swimming)
• Track
• Volleyball
• Wrestling

 What matters most is the desire to better oneself everyday and to embrace Love, Trust, Hard Work!
