NEW USRowing JUNIOR LIGHTWEIGHT ATHLETE PROTOCOL
This year begins a new USRowing’s Junior Lightweight Compliance Program for student-athletes wishing to race in lightweight events. This evidence-based protocol is designed to ensure that participating athletes are “true” lightweights and do not lose weight in order to meet weight standards, focusing on the health and safety of our youth rowers. Participating athletes MUST certified by a healthcare professional (e.g., primary care provider, nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant).
The maximum weight for boys is 150 lbs. and for girls is 130 lbs.
For any student-athlete planning to compete as a lightweight rower during the upcoming spring/summer season, there are several actions that must be completed in order for your child to compete. PLEASE CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS AND TAKE NOTE OF THE UPCOMING DEADLINES. We encourage you to take immediate action. Our coaches can help you with any questions in this process.
