Training.
Training is held at the Passaic river and on land training days, at
MHS. Athletes must wear appropriate clothing and bring plenty of
water. Rowers need tight clothing, layers for the cold weather and
a waterproof top, running shoes must be worn/brought to every
practice.
Car pools are organised by the athletes and parents.
Practice is held in all weather. If high wind or thunderstorms stop
on-the-water practice, a land session may be organised. It is not
always possible for coaches to make a decision about the
conditions until they reach the river. Parents need to be flexible
and prepared.
Rowers and Parents: During the season our website:
www.montclaircrew.com should be checked regularly
throughout the day. Please also check your emails.
In the spring racing season, any athlete who has missed practice
due to serious injury or sickness, must be cleared by a doctor and
must be able to fully participate in all training on their return.
There is no guarantee that a seat will be held for any athlete who
is sick or injured. This may mean exclusion from practice and
racing for all or part of the spring season
