Training Sessions

These vary from novice to senior grade. Your coach will discuss with you what committment they expect from you.Both water and land sessions will be expected.

• Novice 3 - 4 sessions per week
• Intermediate 6 sessions per week

• Masters meet to form crews to go on the water at 8.30am every Sunday morning and training during the week is weather dependant. Group chat is used to communicate who is doing what and when.

The club competitive training season for school age rowers runs from October to February, when the New Zealand Nationals are held. From that point the rowers train from our club to compete at the South Island Secondary School championships and then the Maardi Cup, under their school colours.

Your coach will advise you what regattas they expect you to attend and the likely costs of attending those regattas.
