NOVICE JUNIOR RACING OVERVIEW
The Novice Junior Racing Team is designed for athletes in grades 8–12 who are new to rowing and ready to challenge themselves in a supportive, team-focused environment. No prior rowing experience is required. As a three-time USRowing Youth National Champion program (2022, 2024, and 2026) and a USRowing High Performance Partner, Newport Sea Base Rowing provides exceptional coaching and a proven pathway for athletes to develop from beginners into confident, competitive rowers.
While our Junior Racing programs are competitive in nature, we believe athletes of all abilities can succeed through quality coaching, hard work, and a positive team culture. Athletes build confidence, technical skill, fitness, and teamwork while preparing for the next level of competitive rowing. Training includes time on the water, indoor rowing (erging), running, calisthenics, and strength development to build both fitness and sound rowing technique.
Program Prerequisite
Participation in one of our Summer Learn-to-Row Camps is recommended but not required. Athletes are welcome to join the Novice Junior Racing Team regardless of prior rowing experience.
