Adult Program

Oak Ridge Rowing offers an Adult Rowing Program called the Oak Ridge Masters. Masters are adults 22+ who row competitively and recreationally. Adults who are between 18-22 are considered college rowers, but can row with the masters recreationally. Many people new to the sport do not realize the word "master" refers only to the age of the rower and is not an indication of ones rowing prowess. ORRA organizes all sweep and sculling for adults in East Tennessee offering athletes the opportunity to train and race in regattas all over North America, through competitive teams that foster camaraderie, fitness and technique. ORRA also offers a recreational program in organized Summer Rowing League, Learn to Row and the Sculling Program. ORRA currently serves over 500adult rowers.

Rowing in the USA is open to almost all ages. In Massachusetts, you have to be over 12 but there is no upper age limit. You need to be able to carry equipment to the water and get in and out of the rowing shell, but age is never a factor. Below, are the age categories: * 12-18 - Youth * 19-27 - Open * 27-99 - Masters (It's just an age category, not a skill assessment!) Other Programs and Offerings If you have a group of friends or work for a company who wishes to learn more about rowing or set up a private session just call Mark Wilson at 865-482-6538. ORRA can accommodate 1-100 people for a great day or week (or longer) on the water. Team Building Group Rows Company Rows Neighborhood Team Youth Group Church Team Social/Service Group
