Competitive Youth - Fall/Winter/Spring

CRI Youth Competitive Rowing sets an unparalleled standard for personal and physical development. Rowers learn the art of rowing while developing life-long skills of accountability, leadership and teamwork. For information on our Competitive Youth Summer Programs, see Competitive Youth Summer Program.
For at least the start of the spring 2021 season, all rowing will continue to take place in singles in order to maximize safety and social distancing during the covid-19 pandemic. Progression to team boats will be coordinated as community spread levels and safety considerations allow.
