Teamwork

A rowing boat’s speed is dictated by how synchronized the crew’s strokes are - it really is the ultimate team sport. But it is about more than just pulling in the same time and direction.

The best crews also provide feedback and take an active role in group decision making. Once rowers  become aware of their ability to improve the team, they can start to help others, particularly those in younger years. 

A key element of a rower’s development is learning how to build relationships with different members of the team and how to support one another to the best outcome.
