Nereid’s pre-season program is a two week try-out period to evaluate athletes to see which part of the program is right for them. It is meant for existing Nereid athletes AND any new athletes in 8th grade or older who want to try out for our Racing Team.

NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY TO TRY OUT!! 

***If you go to a school that has its own rowing team, you are welcome to try out and row at Nereid, HOWEVER, we ask that only athletes who plan on rowing for Nereid for the year try out.

Pre-season practice runs 5 days a week (M-F from 11-1)

The Fall pre-season runs from August 21st – September 1st

Cost: $250

Description:

Athletes will run through a wide array of land and water workouts testing fitness, skill, enthusiasm, attitude and work ethic. At the end of the two weeks, the coaches will sit down with each athlete to tell them which Fall 2021 program to sign up for. Those programs include: Varsity, Novice, Intermediate and Beginner

For those athletes that want to be on our competitive racing teams, (Varsity and Novice) Fall Pre-Season is mandatory. This is to make sure each athlete is on the proper team before heading into the season. For athletes that are only interested in the Intermediate and Beginner programs pre-season is not necessary

Athletes and parents will have one week to sign up for their program.
