competitive Beginner/Novice crew.
During the sessions you will:

the boat and many other rowing terms

The Development Squad training program continues where the Learn to Row
course leaves off. Unlike many other clubs, this program is
included in membership fees, and is specifically tailored to those that
have learned the basics of rowing, and want to improve their technique.
From there, the choice is yours. Choose social rowing, or join one
of our squads as a competitive rower.
