Sweep Rowing or Sculling?
Don’t know the difference? In sweep rowing, each rower holds one oar. In sculling, each rower holds two oars, or “sculls.”

MORE INFO:
- Wear comfortable shorts (boys – try to avoid super long basketball stype shorts that might get caught in the equipment), t-shirt or tank top, sneakers, and a water bottle. If you have long hair, you will want to pull it back into a ponytail or barrette.
- Be sure and wear sunscreen! Some folks also like to row with a hat and/or sunglasses on bright days (optional).
