Competitive High School Team

 Concentration, teamwork, perseverance and dedication

The basics

WWRA operates a program for high school athletes that runs during all four seasons. The program encourages those interested in rowing and those interested in coxing (steering and directing operations). Fall season races tend to be about 5km. Winter season is an indoor program of conditioning. Spring season races are sprints of about 2km.

The program is open to public school students in Wayland and Weston. Rowing races occur at regattas. There are usually 4 regattas in the fall and 4 in the spring. If your child performs well, his or her boat may progress and go to additional regattas.
