Beginning in 6th grade, TRC's middle school program teaches fitness, teamwork, boat handling and responsibility and, of course, rowing! While middle schoolers do have opportunities to race each season, we aim primarily to develop long-term athletes and foster the love for rowing that our coaches, athletes, and families all share.
Middle school athletes and parents often notice rapid improvements in fitness, technical prowess, confidence, and the skills required to work as a team. Our young rowers form an integral part of our TRC community, and middle school athletes generally train alongside the high school squads, exposing newer rowers to the dedication, technique, and accomplishments of the entire team.
Many middle school athletes will go on to row competitively through their senior year of high school and beyond.
If you're interested in joining our middle school program, please visit our New to TRC? page for upcoming recruiting events and learn-to-row opportunities.
