LEARN TO ROW
topbar
Learn to row (LTR) courses are provided by GUSPRC as an introduction to the sport of flat water rowing. The course is modelled on Rowing Australia guidelines having been designed to teach individuals of all age 13 to 75 years young - our oldest rower, & persons of all abilities (with little or no rowing experience) the rudimentary elements of & provide them with the confidence & the basic skills of the sculling technique (i.e. rowing with 2 blades). The art of sweep oar (big boat rowing i.e. w/- a single oar) is taught once you have mastered the sculling technique & have joined the club. We introduce you to club rowing programs.
