Jump Start Program
SRA’s Junior Jump Start Program is an intensive camp for rowers with no prior experience who plan to join SRA’s high school team in fall and/or who want to learn what it’s like to be part of a competitive team. Athletes will work hard as they learn about rowing technique, fitness training, and the commitment required to be part of the year-round high school program. This camp is highly recommended but not required for fall participation. Junior Jump Start is also appropriate for middle school rowers interested in joining the high school team. For students going into grades 8-12.
Try Rowing Camp

Less intensive than SRA’s Jump Start Program, Try Rowing is for kids who are not yet considering joining SRA’s year-round high school program. Try Rowing is also appropriate for middle school rowers who aren’t sure they wish to join the high school team. No prior experience required. For students going into grades 8-12.
U-19 Competitive Small Boats Camp
This camp is for experienced, current SRA High School Rowers and will culminate in a trip to the USRowing Youth Summer National Championships on Melton Lake in Oak Ridge, Tenn. 2022 Graduates will be permitted to race at this event. Because this is a competitive camp, rowers will be required to apply to attend. Application information will be available in early April. The goal of this camp is to further develop current rowers' skills (primarily in small boats, though we may also race 8+'s) and provide a championship level racing experience.

Sammamish Rowing Association’s High School Team provides a safe and supportive environment for student athletes to develop rowing skills and fitness, as well as sportsmanship, commitment, teamwork, and discipline. SRA’s coaches provide support and guidance to help athletes pursue excellence on and off the water, set and achieve realistic goals, and develop balance between family, school, and rowing. Junior rowers leave SRA with the confidence to take on the next chapters of their lives whether on or off the water, having built skills, friendships, and memories that will last a lifetime.
TRAINING Developing the fitness, skills, and strength required to be competitive requires a serious time commitment, including practice after school and on Saturdays as well as regattas on some weekends. To achieve top speed on the water, rowers also spend significant time on land engaged in weight training, running, and time on rowing machines (ergs). The practice and race schedule varies by season; see below for the current schedule. Rowing is a year-round sport at SRA. However, if you are a multisport athlete interested in joining us after your other sport season is over, email one of the coaches below. TEAM RESULTS
