Adult Rowing Programs

Adult rowing, also known as Masters rowing, is for adults of all athletic backgrounds and ages (over 18 and not in high school). We offer a variety of opportunities to match any skill level or competitive interest. If you have never done anything athletic, we welcome you! And for adults with athletic backgrounds or experience, there are many pathways to integrating rowing into your life. 

 

LCRA is nestled on the shore of 1900 acre Lake Minneola – a beautiful location and part of the Clermont FL Chain of Lakes chain of lakes and more than 2,000 lakes in Lake County, Florida. Our state-of-the-art 5000 sq. ft. boathouse facility is one of the most striking and spacious boathouses in Florida. If you imagined taking yourself on a lifelong athletic journey, want to tap into your competitive juices, or simply desire to get out into the fresh air and enjoy nature, rowing could be your pathway! The master rowers at LCRA are a fun and diverse group ranging from beginners to experienced and former collegiate rowers. If you are relocating to the Clermont / Lake County / West Orange County area, we encourage you to contact us and visit our club!

ADULT COACHED PROGRAM The Adult Coached Program includes three groups. 1) Developmental is for beginner rowers that have been rowing for a relatively short period of time or recently completed a Learn-To-Row program. It’s low pressure and fun and filled with learning. 2) Developmental+ is the next step up for rowers that have advanced from the Developmental group but may not be ready for the Advanced/Racing group – or for rowers that may not have interest in more intense racing-focused training. If desired, Development+ rowers can participate in racing regattas typically in the B-tier races (there are typically A, B, C boats, etc.) 3) The Advanced/Competitive group typically is for rowers that are interested in competitive training for specific races throughout the season. Races are optional, however the training is of higher volume and focus.   Program dues include full coached sessions, use of the boathouse and equipment during scheduled hours and coxswain fees.  Regatta costs are pay as you go – costs related to regatta fees, food, boat transportation to/from regattas, and coach hotel fees (when there are overnights), are divided between the rowers attending the race. The costs are typically very reasonable.
