Learn to Scull Clinics

Coaches: Erika Dade, Others TBA

This 3 x 1½ hour program is designed for beginner scullers who would like to learn sculling (rowing with two oars). Sweep rowers are welcome, as are total beginners and less experienced scullers who wish to review basic technique. Participants will use UVRF’s recreational rowing shells or racing singles with floats, which are both very stable in the water. The sessions will focus on boat handling, building skills and gaining confidence in a single (also known as a “1x”).

UVRF Membership is not required for this introductory course. However, all participants should have passed the UVRF or HHS swim test or pre-sign a swim test liability waiver. Participants will be asked to sign a USRowing liability waiver as well.

Use of club sculling equipment for two weeks after instruction is included. Under-18s who wish to continue sculling after the clinic must submit a Permission to Scull Alone waiver signed by a parent or guardian.
