BCR is now even happier because we can announce our third (and more) in a series of sculling clinics!
All of our clinics are intended to benefit those who scull by providing coached, technique-oriented sessions on a one-off/series basis, and to encourage the use of independent, smaller boats as a way to get more time on the water and become a better all-around rower.
We also want to provide support to our members who would like to take their sculling to the next level and improve their racing experience/results or race for the first time. For the months of July and August we will be offering a series of clinics which focus on intermediate and advanced sculling topics. We are extremely fortunate to have a highly qualified and superbly recommended coach: Greg Ruckman, who has rowed with the US National Team, competed at the Olympics and FISA World Rowing Championships many times.
The clinics are open to BCR members and non-members on a first-come, first-served basis. Scullers may reserve BCR equipment or provide their own boats. Equipment and spaces are both limited, so sign up soon!
You may register for either one clinic at a time, or the entire set.
