Take your rowing to the next level by learning to scull this summer! Sculling introduces sweep rowers to the skills and fun of rowing in smaller boats while managing two oars to propel the boat. Participants will learn boat and oar handling techniques in small-group sessions. Types of sculling boats/ events include a single 1x, a double 2x or a quad 4x. Current rowers need to have one year of rowing experience behind them in order begin sculling, so even Fall Novices can participate!
