Novice rowers are reminded of practice on Tuesday and Thursday after school, and to come to an alternate day (Monday, Wednesday or Friday) if you have to miss Tuesday or Thursday. Check your email for team updates. The first novice competition is on Feb 1 and we want to help you succeed and feel good about yourself and your effort on that day. A favourite Crossley Rowing saying is “If you fail to prepare, be prepared to fail”. Keep up the excellent attendance and attitudes and the new altitudes you are reaching. Go blue and gold!
