Our 5-day developmental day camp is only open to campers with prior rowing/coxing experience. Campers will be boated in 4+s or 8+s (please note that scullers are very much welcome but we will only be rowing sweep boats).
- For rowers: focus will be on individual stroke development and making sure rowers are using their bodies effectively to contribute to overall boat speed
- For coxswains: coxswains are an integral member of the boat and are treated as such in our camps. Focus for our coxswains will be on aiding rowers in technical changes, alongside leadership development on both land and water
*Note: all work will be performed at low to medium intensity to allow for the safe wearing of masks by both campers and staff for all activities outside of meals
$575 and includes coaching from our Navy Rowing Staff, supervision, Navy Rowing Camp t-shirt, & daily snacks
All Navy Sports Camps have the common goal of developing a camper’s ability and exposing her to the Midshipman concepts of honor, integrity and discipline. All coaching will be from our highly esteemed Navy Rowing coaching staff (please note for 2021: depending on numbers, it is possible that our Boys' and Girls' camps will merge to provide the best possible rowing experience for our campers).
