Spring 2026 Registration
Spring Season
High School Program
The high school program is for 9- 12th grade students. Rowing teams compete scholastically during the spring season, as such all registrants must be Shenendehowa High School students.
The spring scholastic rowing season offers shorter 1500-meter “sprint” distance compared to the Fall Season. During the spring season we will participate in both local and national level Scholastic regattas during April and May, with some travel required.
Full Season: March 2- June 5
Monday - Friday*
3 - 6 p.m.
*The spring season will begin indoors at Koda (5 days per week/ M-F). Similar to winter training, parents will pick up their athletes at 5:45pm. The team will transition to the Shen Boathouse as soon as the docks are in and the river and weather conditions are safe. Anticipated date to return to on-water training is ~March 23.
Transportation to the Boathhouse on school days will be via a membership-based carpool. A carpooling schedule will be developed once membership has been polled and availability established. Travel expenses to regattas are at athlete’s expense.
Saturday morning practices are anticipated for select HS athletes for late March and April. More information will be made available once docks are in.
