Safety on and off the water is our greatest priority as we have a duty of care for every junior athlete in our care.
It is essential that all junior rowers can:
* Swim 50m fully clothed
* Respond immediately to the coach's instructions
* Use equipment unsupervised
* Work as part of a team
* Be happy training in all weather conditions (including the cold and wet!)
If you feel your child would struggle with any of the above please consider carefully if rowing would be the right sport for your child.
Wherever possible we do ask that parents volunteer to bank party or support the running of the junior section in some way.
