The Juniors.

East Bay Rowing offers rowing for youth ages 13 and up. We have boats for novice through varsity level rowers. EBR competes in about 4 regional regattas each season (spring and fall). Our coxswain training gives kids the knowledge and confidence to lead a boat of their peers. See below for more information about on water rowing, indoor conditioning and coxing.

The Indoor Season.

In the winter EBR rowers head indoors to Cutler, our gym. With tons of ergs and loads of creative workouts, junior rowers get great cross training for our on water seasons. The erg is a fantastic machine that works every part of your body with no impact. We train from November through March. EBR’s Indoor facility is located at 84 Cutler Street Warren RI.

Registration is now closed.

The Coxswain.

Coxing is an exciting and crucial role in rowing team boats. Good coxswains combine elements of steering, race strategy, technical coaching, and motivation to help their crews reach their potential. Coxswains do not physically row the boat, but they contribute to its speed by providing leadership and direction to their rowers. It is important to recognize that coxswains are really part of the crew. To learn more about the role of a coxswain click on the pic OR email DOR@eastbayrowing.com.
