 What to Bring

Rowing is a sport requiring full body movement. We encourage you to wear tight fitting clothing such as a T-shirt and bike shorts. With the water reflecting the sun, please consider a hat and sunglasses. Thongs or flip-flops are appropriate footwear with a spare pair of socks to wear in the boat. 

Please also bring a drink bottle and Ventolin or other medication if required.

What happens after LTR?

Following completion of the LTR program, there will be an opportunity for attendees to progress into our high performance program. This program requires a larger commitment, with 8 week training blocks throughout terms 3 & 4 of this year and 1st term next year. Training would be held up to 3 times per week on Monday and Wednesdays after school at 4.30pm and on Saturday mornings from 8am.
