The emphasis of the 2008 Hawks Rowing Camp is the personal development of the whole athlete in preparation for the collegiate rowing experience. We have designed our camp to enhance and develop all aspects of the sport for girls who intend to row at the college level. We limit our number of campers to maximize coaching and teaching.

We will teach techniques to use our bodies more efficiently on the water, in the weight room, and on the erg. These techniques will translate to faster times on the water, better erg times and injury prevention.

Space is limited!!

Back in 2008: BEGINNERS' CAMP
By popular demand we are happy to offer camp instruction to beginners with no or very little previous rowing experience.

The Pre-Collegiate Camp
Our goal for the Hawks Rowing Camp is to better the athlete's understanding of the sport. Whether you are a rower or a coxswain -this understanding will be vital in adapting to new rowing styles, new training philosophies, and new approaches to the sport that the athletes will face in making the move from High School athletics to collegiate athletics.

Daily activities will include long technical rows on the Schuylkill each day in Eights, Fours and Quads honing the rowing technique and developing a better understanding of what makes the boat move. We will review video tape of our training sessions to increase our understanding of efficiency. Coxswains will get instruction on all aspects of coxing -including but not limited to helping teammates improve technique and comfort in the boat as well as identifying boat needs and solutions, rigging and racing.

Our daily presentations will include topics of weight training, nutrition, endurance training, racing, stretching, rigging, coxing and more.

If you are hoping to row or cox in college in the next year or two - this is the camp for you.

The Beginner's Camp
We will again invite girls with limited or no rowing experience to enjoy camp as well. We will introduce the sport to the girls with an overview of training, technique, stretching, etc and of course a lot of on the water training. We will take 10 girls for this experience. If you want to try out for your high school or college this is a great way to get a leg up.
