Youth rowing

Youth rowing is a competitive sport where young athletes race in boats called shells, synchronized by teamwork and technique. Participants, typically aged 12 to 18, learn to row using oars while balancing and steering in narrow, elongated boats on lakes or rivers. The sport emphasizes physical endurance, strength, coordination, and teamwork. Training includes on-water practice, technical drills, and fitness workouts, often organized through clubs or schools. Youth rowing fosters discipline, camaraderie, and a love for outdoor activity, with opportunities for competitions at local, national, and international levels.
