Fall Programs

High School rowing is made up of high school students (grades 8-12) who either attend CHS or other neighboring high schools (Bolton, Tolland, Rham, etc.). 8th-graders with prior rowing experience may be considered (email coach@coventrylakerowing.com).

CLCR High School Crew Club: This is a club season and is open to both HS students and youth from surrounding towns.
Start date is Wednesday after Labor Day (Sept 7th)
Practices are Monday, Wednesday & Thursday 5-7/7:15 PM until the sun starts to set earlier. We try to be coming into docks around 6:30.

Competition schedule may change and only rowers who are "race ready" will be entered. All team mates are encouraged to attend as full team participation makes us much more competitive! Planned race schedule is:

September 23: Holyoke
October 1: Head of the Riverfront, Hartford, CT
October 8: New England Junior & Master Championship Regatta

Fees for fall 2023 are dependent on racing fees and will be $150 for this season. Multi-children families are capped at $250.
