The team is open to athletes (rowers, and coxswains), with U17 or U19 status (as defined by USRowing) who have one or more years of rowing experience. PWC’s Competitive Summer Program is offered to provide those wishing to continue rowing/competing over the summer with a focus on improving fundamental rowing skills and representing the Oxford Boathouse in local and National Regattas. Members of this group should anticipate training in both sweep and sculling boats. Athletes should be prepared for racing in multiple boat classes and events during the competition.
Registration for the Summer Racing Program will be open for all athletes interested in racing this summer. All athletes will be evaluated by members of the coaching staff as well as additional factors to include but not limited to: 2K score, power to weight ratio, 10 stroke & 1-minute watt tests, overall fitness, technical aptitude, and boat moving ability during the Program Evaluation Period. Following the Program Evaluation Period, athletes will be notified which program, Competitive vs Select, and regattas they'll be attending.
