What is the Novice Team?
Our Novice Team is the first step into competitive rowing on the regional level.  Kids in 8th-12th grade start on the Novice Team without any prior rowing experience.  USRowing allows rowers to compete on the novice level for only 1 calendar year, which makes it a very competitive division.  The Novice Team practices 5 days/week during the Fall season.  ​
