Junior Development Camp (Nelson)

Date: August 10-11th
Location: Nelson, BC
Hosts: Rowing BC, Nelson Rowing Club
Topic: Junior Development
Minimum Participants: 20
Cost to participate: $60

This camp has been created to compliment attending the Nelson Regatta on Saturday, August 10th. Following the regatta, participants will have an opportunity to shower/change before returning to begin the camp aspects of the weekend. Saturday afternoon/evening will include a yoga session specifically designed with rowers in mind, and a technique session led by Rowing BC’s Coach Coordinator, Martin George. These dryland sessions will allow participants to physically recover from their race day while making use of the time for other types of learning and development. Sunday will include two on-water sessions providing participants with individualized technical assessment and opportunities for fine-tuning. Participants are expected to use the equipment they had provided for racing the day before. This is also an opportunity to further strengthen the connections between participants from different clubs throughout the Interior of BC (and special guests from Idaho!).
