Attendance Policy for Sweep Rowing

Whether for recreational purposes or competition, rowing is a fitness and skill demanding team sport.  Every Masters’ program relies on the mutual commitment of rowers and coaches to these demands if it is to thrive. 

 

• Rowers should arrive 15 minutes prior to the practice start time.

• Attendance is expected for rowers who have pre-scheduled--this includes Open, Technical and Sculling programs, morning and evening.

• If known in advance, sweep rowers must email sweepsub23@a2crew.org to seek their substitute. If you are sculling you must email the coach or sculling23@a2crew.org  and let them know you can't make it. 

 Emergency circumstances that prevent you from meeting your pre-scheduled commitment must be communicated to the Director of Rowing Programs in advance if at all possible. 

Penalty System for unexcused absences/ no-shows

• First unexcused absence: Verbal and written warning from the Director of AARC.

• Second unexcused absence: The rower will not be scheduled for the next week for which he/she requests to be scheduled. 
 

• Subsequent unexcused absences--As per the second unexcused absence with additional weeks for which the rower will not be scheduled.
