Safety

Safe on the water, every practice.

Rowing is a safe sport when it is coached well. Here is how PA Crew looks after your rower.

Our Commitments

What keeps rowers safe

Swim Test Required

Every rower completes a Swimming Policy & Ability Form before getting on the water.

Coaches on the water

A coach is in a launch at every water practice, so help is always close.

Trained coaches

Our coaches are SafeSport trained and CPR / first aid certified.

Wind and weather calls

If wind cancels water practice, optional dryland training may run instead. Coach Jon posts the status on BAND.

Before the first practice
