Location: Scottish Rowing Centre, Strathclyde Park
Time: 0900-1500 (early drop off available from 0800)
The camps will be led by Mike Hughes with support from the Scottish Rowing Performance Pathway coaching team and other guest coaches. Mike is widely regarded as one of the UK’s leading rowing coaches of beginner athletes. His beginner crews at the University of Edinburgh have dominated the podium at BUCS Regatta over recent years and this can be attributed to his warm and positive coaching style which focuses on individual athlete development and having fun in the process.
The 5 day intensive camps will focus on technical excellence and will help rowers improve their skill and confidence in small boats, with video analysis and access to the indoor rowing tank used to provide in-depth individual feedback. Additional coaching sessions in the Scottish Rowing Centre will aim to improve physical development and movement patterns to support good health and wellbeing.
Athletes should bring their own single scull to support their participation in the camp. A small number of single sculls are available to rent from Scottish Rowing and the University of Edinburgh for an additional fee – please contact rowingcentre@scottish-rowing.org.uk to arrange this. Boat storage will be available on site.
* rowing age as per 2022/23 season. Please note, we cannot accept rowers under the J16 cut off age - they may book a space on the camp beginning July 31st.
