Graduates of the novice learn to row program are welcome to join Intermediate Novice Rowing (INR) to further develop their skills on the water. Please contact us for questions about the program and registration.
Mission:
Capital’s INR strives to provide an additional level of knowledge and skill for novice rowers.
The program is designed to allow novice rowers to gain experience in shells as rowers and coxswains with more experienced novices who may have graduated from a prior learn to row program (no one in the program has rowed for more than a year). The program then allows rowers to move onto a club program as soon as they feel they have developed the skills and confidence to row at the next level.
Objectives:
- Improve basic rowing technique, building on novice class work
- Introduction to more advanced rowing concepts
- Improve strength and conditioning
- Coxing
- Basic rigging
Volunteering:
Capital Rowing Club is a volunteer-run organization, and members are expected to volunteer at least six (6) hours each season.
Racing:
Novice rowers are welcome to participate in regattas if there is interest among the rowers.
Equipment:
- 8 person coxed sweep boats (8+)
- 4 person coxed sweep boats (4+)
