Men’s Competitive Rowing

We chase speed and build strength. We value hard work and the ability to learn from each other.

We’re dedicated athletes looking to refine technique, increase speed, and make connections with other passionate rowers. We compete in local and national regattas, including the Head Of The Charles and USRowing Masters Nationals.

Join us!

• Ideally, athletes will have at least two years of rowing or coxing under their belt, with some racing experience. Individuals are evaluated on attitude, coachability, fitness, erg scores, technique, and competitive spirit. 
• Tryouts typically occur in late March. For more tryout options, please reach Head Coach Chelsea Foster. Experienced coxswains may join the team at any time.
• Our season runs from late March through the end of October. Training together is an essential component of our success. We recognize our teammates’ work and family commitments and try to provide a balanced training approach.
• We encourage team members to volunteer for CRI events and initiatives throughout the year. This is an essential part of our community. Learn more about volunteering here.

Gender Policy: Per CRI’s policies, athletes participate in rowing practices with the team (Men’s or Women’s) that best matches their expressed gender identity. This is regardless of the gender listed on the athlete’s birth certificate and regardless of whether the athlete has undergone any medical treatment. However, per USRowing policies, Women’s/Girls’ competitive events (races or regattas), are limited to athletes who were assigned a sex at birth of female. If you have questions, please reach Ted Benford, Executive Director.
