Juniors

Mosman Rowing Club’s Junior Rowing Programs are for children who attend schools that do not offer their own programs. This is due to resource constraints and is designed to offer a Club rowing experience to children without this opportunity.

Any child in Year 8 to Year 12, can start to row at Mosman and we have 4 different programs:-

Junior Learn to Row – this is for children who have never rowed before and are interested in trying the sport – caters for any age from Year 8

Junior Recreational Program – this is for children who can row and would like to continue and race, but have conflicting priorities which may not allow them to commit to the next 2 programs. – this typically caters for Years 8, 9 and 10 children and has flexibility for training days and regattas

Junior Development Squad – this is for children who have made a decision to make rowing their main sport and can commit to a compulsory training program both on and off the water. While it is generally envisaged for students in Years 11 and 12 it may in exceptional circumstances be applicable for Year 10 and Year 9 students

Junior High Performance Squad – this builds on from the Development Squad again with set training days on and off the water but at an increased level. This will be for Y11 and Y12 children who aspire to Australian representative selection at U19 level.

No matter which squad you are in, you will be a member of Mosman Rowing Club and able to row for the Club. We use a service provider, Good Form Sports Academy, to assess all aspiring members to Mosman Rowing Club.
