2010-11 USRowing Men’s and Women's National Team ID Camp in Oklahoma City

2010-11 USRowing Men’s and Women's National Team ID Camp - Oklahoma City

The USRowing Men’s and Women's Identification Camp is to identify athletes throughout the United States with U-23 or Senior National Team potential. These camp offers the opportunity for athletes across the country to:
  • Demonstrate their talents on the erg and potentially on the water
  • Mix it up with other talented athletes
  • Learn more about the national team
  • Meet national team coaches
This is also a chance for national team coaches to identify top athletes earlier in the year in order to effectively direct them to camps that will further their potential: Freshman Camp, Development, Pre-Elite, U-23 Selection, Senior Selection, etc.

Target Athletes:

The open camp in OKC is targeted to collegiate men or women with U-23 or Senior National Team potential and aspirations. Those who are recently out of college or in graduate school also are encouraged to attend.

Rowers: Male rowers can be aspiring to the U-23 or Senior National Team with an erg range under 6:10 for 2k and 19:30 for 6k for open weight men and 6:25 for 2k and 20:20 for 6k for lightweight men.

For open weight female rowers, the erg range is under 7:15 for 2k or 23:15 for 6k.

Coxswains: We will need 2-3 coxswains per camp. However, this is not intended to be a coxswain identification camp. Coxswains can learn, possibly assist and have the opportunity to cox or ride in a launch if space is available. Please contact me if you have an interested coxswain.

Date and Location:

The camp will consist of erg testing and presentations about test results, summer rowing opportunities, national team q &a etc. Erg testing will include a max power test, one-minute test and a 30-minute test. A limited number of athletes will be selected to row based on their erg performance. The tentative schedule is below. Specific details and schedule will be sent to participants prior to the camp.
