WBC Junior Ballot for Summer Camp and 2024-25

***WBC Junior Rowing Section is expanding***

Following the successful relaunch of the Warwick Boat Club junior rowing section in September 2023, the club is now looking to expand the section and provide opportunities for eight prospective junior members to try the sport. As a prerequisite to joining the section, the club is running a training camp in late August/early September with participation in this camp decided by ballot should it be over-subscribed. Following the training camp, four of the eight participants will be offered the opportunity to join the section on a permanent basis. Once again, this opportunity will be offered following a simple ballot rather than by a selection process.

The ballot link below is for you to complete as you have expressed an interest in your son/daughter rowing with us. Please note the closing date for submitting the application form (end of the day on 1st August 2024) as any received after that date will not be considered.

All sessions will be organised and run by qualified coaches and supported by a number of volunteers from the club.

Thu 29th Aug 9-11am
