Junior Development Programme
This year’s programs will maintain the purpose as previous years; however, taking into consideration our current pandemic, there will be fundamental changes to how each program functions. All efforts will be made to give the most access possible for all members. As the summer unfolds, it is our hope to shift our focus back to crew boats and away from single sculling, all in concert with our public health restrictions. Regatta attendance will also be based on availability and public health. Weekly sign up will be required for boat distribution within the competitive and recreational programs.
All rowers must be off the water before the end of their training times to properly wash and disinfect boats and leave the area before the next training group. Rowers that did not complete the swim test will be able to do so once the water has reached a safe temperature. Rowers that have not completed the swim test may row with pontoons until having completed the swim test.
Our Junior development program is for younger aged rowers new to the sport and those developing towards the competitive race program. Trainings are from 3:30-5:30pm Monday to Friday, or as schedule permits. All Junior rowers should come to practice with running shoes, water bottle, sunscreen, and snacks. Cross training will be held when bad weather or wind conditions exist. Boats will be distributed onsite, rather than pre registered.

Goals
The competitive program is for athletes that are oriented towards competitive racing and National/Provincial team selection. Workouts are 5-6 mornings a week with some possibility for afternoon access and ergometer work. There will be two morning schedules allocating boats and time slots; 6 am - 8 am and 8:30 am - 10:30 am. Boat access will be distributed on a basis of minimum 4, maximum 6 times per week. The program will shift to crew boats and competition focused programming once public health measures allow.
Please note that expenses related to competitions (regatta fees, racing uniform, travel, etc.) are not included in the MRC programme fee.
