Learning Sessions:

Defining Club Roles

Job descriptions and role boundaries make club life so much easier. In this session we'll explore the differences between coaches, managers, captains, steers, drummers so you can start creating clear, written guidelines for each role.

Running On-Water Practices

We keep hearing from coaches that there's no central place to get practice plans and drills, especially when you're first starting out. We'll share some of our favorites, what they do, and why we love them.

Off-water/Winter Training Planning + Strategy
