RCRC Youth Team Practice

Rocket City offers youth rowing opportunities throughout the year.  During the Spring and Fall seasons, we practice 3 days per week. During the Summer and Winter, we practice 3 days per week.

Attending practice regularly is important for rowers to develop physically and technically.   Rowers are encouraged to participate in all practice sessions. High school rowers will be taught sculling (rowing with 2 oars) with an emphasis on honing skills, building speed, and working as a team. They will also be taught sweep rowing- rowing with a single oar. High school rowers, once reaching proficiency, will typically row in 2 – 3 races per season.

To learn how to join the team or for more information, please call 256-384-5310 or send your contact  information via e-mail to juniorscoordinator@gmail.com
