Recreational Rowing

Juniors
Our programs for highschool kids. Learn to row in a program in your age group. Learn to train and compete in the youngest age group of all of our programs.

Competitive Rowing
The competitive program at the DRC is considered to be a high performance category of rowing. To compete at this level requires a year-round commitment, with six training sessions each week during the winter.

Masters Rowing
Some can't stop it, others start late in life. This program provides mature athletes (age 27 and over) with the opportunity to retain their competitive edge.
