Helpful Tips for Clubs
- Practice the changeovers so they are fast which will greatly improve the team's performances.
- To add some excitement, challenge a nearby team to a head to head race.
- On the last stroke before the changeover, make sure the next rower grabs the handle. Don't let it go!
- Have fun. Shout encouragement and, above all - work as a team.
- If you have time, do each challenge more than once. The second time is almost always faster.
- On the changeovers, have one team member hold the seat ready for the next rower to sit down.
