Winter Conditioning runs from late November until the start of the spring season in February and is open to any Arlington 8th-12th grader. This is a general conditioning program with a specific emphasis on rowing. Sessions are held 5 days a week at W-L. No experience is necessary. This training is not mandatory, but is highly encouraged for any athlete thinking of rowing in the spring who is not doing another winter sport.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”2″ column_layout_using_2_columns=”even” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 1″ col_2_content=”W-L Athletic Registration & VHSL Physical (Must be completed before winter conditioning)” url=”https:\/\/wlathletics-ar.rschooltoday.com\/”][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”2″ column_layout_using_2_columns=”even” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 2″ col_2_content=”Complete Team Registration Form” url=”https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSdRnkcBaSn8UO06ztJfQjsTsYqBDlGQFxUoPewA55GHxancrQ\/viewform”][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”2″ column_layout_using_2_columns=”even” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 3″ col_2_content=”Consider Paying Dues Early (Dues are not required until February 24, but returning rowers get a $50 discount if they pay before November 30!)” url=”https:\/\/w-lcrewboosters.org\/fundraising\/”][\/tab][tab icon_family=”none” title=”Spring Season” id=”1731685622888-0″ tab_id=”1731685622888-2″][vc_column_text]\n

Crew is a spring sport at W-L and starts in late February and runs until the end of May, with several post season social and award events in early June. The team is open to any 8th-12th grade student who is (or will be) attending W-L. To help you and your family discover whether rowing is for you, and to prepare you for the rigors of the spring season we offer two pre-season events: Fall Green Days and Winter Conditioning. If you can\u2019t attend either of these introductory programs, no worries! We still accept new athletes at the start of the season.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”3″ column_layout_using_3_columns=”large_middle” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_3_text_align=”right” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ col_3_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 1″ col_2_content=”Register for W-L Crew” url=”https:\/\/forms.gle\/4Wa3ACHrmpW6y2yk8″ col_3_content=”NOW”][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”3″ column_layout_using_3_columns=”large_middle” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_3_text_align=”right” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ col_3_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 2″ col_2_content=”Complete W-L Athletic Registration & VHSL Physical” col_3_content=”Feb 24″ url=”https:\/\/wlathletics-ar.rschooltoday.com\/”][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”3″ column_layout_using_3_columns=”large_middle” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_3_text_align=”right” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ col_3_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 3″ col_2_content=”USRowing Waiver (Novices enter Team “W-L Crew Boosters“ and use code A53N3)” col_3_content=”Feb 24″ url=”https:\/\/membership.usrowing.org\/”][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”3″ column_layout_using_3_columns=”large_middle” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_3_text_align=”right” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ col_3_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 4″ col_2_content=”Swim Test (novices only)” col_3_content=”Feb 24″][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”3″ column_layout_using_3_columns=”large_middle” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_3_text_align=”right” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ col_3_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 5″ col_2_content=”Pay Dues” col_3_content=”Feb 24″ url=”https:\/\/www.fund-wlcrew.com\/”][nectar_horizontal_list_item columns=”3″ column_layout_using_3_columns=”large_middle” col_1_text_align=”left” col_2_text_align=”left” col_3_text_align=”right” col_1_text_element=”h4″ col_2_text_element=”h4″ col_3_text_element=”h4″ font_family=”p” hover_effect=”default” hover_color=”accent-color” col_1_content=”Step 6″ col_2_content=”Meet Fundraising Obligation” col_3_content=”Mar 30″ url=”https:\/\/www.fund-wlcrew.com\/”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”50″][vc_column_text]\n

Swim Test<\/h3>\n

The swim test is <\/strong><\/span>only required for novice rowers<\/span><\/strong> who wish to participate in Green Days or the Regular Season.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is rare for anyone to end up in the water. However we take safety very seriously, and swim tests are mandatory. You will need a swim suit, towel, and a (very) light pair of sweat pants and sweat shirt. Please arrive and change promptly, then head out to the pool area. Wearing the sweats over your swim suit you must:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Swim three lengths of the pool (75 yards)<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Then tread water for one minute<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Then you will be handed a life jacket which you must successfully put on<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    All three items must be completed without touching the sides or bottom of the pool. You may use any stroke to complete the laps. If you have trouble we will help you! So don\u2019t let swimming be a deterrent to joining the crew. (And almost never do boats flip, or people go in the water\u2026 this is merely for safety.)<\/span><\/p>\n

    Coaches will conduct a swim test twice a month for those who have not already completed the task. These dates will be placed on the crew calendar for your reference.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”30″][nectar_video_lightbox link_style=”play_button_with_text” nectar_play_button_color=”Default-Accent-Color” nectar_play_button_style=”default” font_style=”h5″ video_url=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pDE1c6wNGKk&feature=youtu.be&t=39″ link_text=”USRowing Waiver Tutorial”][\/tab][tab icon_family=”none” title=”Fall Green Days” id=”1731685623052-6″ tab_id=”1731685623052-7″][vc_column_text]\n

    Green Days are held in September and October. Any student can come down to the marina and try things out. We teach you everything you need to know. Parents are encouraged to stop by since fellow parents may be available to answer questions. [NOTE: 2024 Green Days have concluded.
