What is the Novice Team?
Our novice team is the first step into competitive rowing on the regional level.  Kids ages 11+ can start on the Novice Team without any prior rowing experience during the winter.  The DBC Novice Team will compete against other novice teams in the Spring season.  After being on the Novice team for the Spring season, the rowers will move to the Varsity team in the fall.  The Novice Team will practice together 4 times a week during the Winter season.

Team Misssion Statement
Dayton Boat Club Junior Team is a competition-focused group with a dedication to inclusiveness.  Individual responsibility and empowerment is a theme of our club culture.  We operate as a unified club with U14, Novice and Varsity teams for boys and girls.  In the Fall 2020 season, we had more than 100 rowers from over 30 schools as members of the Dayton Boat Club Junior Team.
