Welcome to the North Bay Rowing Club Juniors
Crew
Welcome to the North Bay Rowing Club Juniors Crew and welcome to the sport of rowing. Rowing is a sport that can be enjoyed throughout an entire lifetime. It is not an easy sport, but the challenges and trials it presents make the rewards and benefits of the sport much sweeter. Rowing is demanding, both physically and mentally. It requires focus, dedication, hard work, personal sacrifice, and a willingness to work together as part of a team. These are attributes that serve the rower well throughout life. The rewards are many, though they are not at all obvious except to the rower and his/her team. Confidence, knowing success, knowing failure, understanding the value of teamwork, and friendship are among them.
Rowing is a very personal sport, measured mostly by one’s own improvement, and occasionally by the sweetness of Victory on the racecourse. It is decidedly character building, and moreover, it is simply fun! We sincerely hope all of you who accept the challenge of joining the NBRC Junior Crew will enjoy your time on the water and your time with your crew members and the coaches.
Best Regards,
The North Bay Rowing Club Coaching Staff
