Competitive Programs
The Competitive Program is comprised of about 200 athletes from Fairfield County, New Haven County, and NY State. The athletes practice 6+ times a week with the ultimate goal of winning a national championship. Each year, the majority of the athletes who graduate compete for Division 1 colleges and the Ivy League. Through their commitment to the team, the athletes become more efficient outside of practice and become positive contributors to society. Admittance into the program is based on technique, ERG scores, a coach’s recommendation, and a tryout.
The Fall Pre-Season/Tryout is open to anyone interested. In the winter, athletes from the intermediate program will be invited to competitive practice for a tryout session as time and space allows.
Those interested in being on the team should contact the Junior Program Coordinator, Michelle Ross: mross@saugatuckrowing.com
