Come and Try Rowing for Port Phillip Residents over 55!
No experience needed. Supervised by qualified coaches

1.5 hour session

Port Phillip residents over 55 years (women and men) are invited to come along and try crew rowing, in a safe, fun and supportive environment, on our beautiful Lake. Rowing is low impact sport which can be enjoyed at any age,  but not suitable for people with mobility and flexibility issues. 

During the session you will learn basic terminology and an introduction to the rowing stroke and rowing technique.
Our coaches will take you through the basics in the gym on the ergs (rowing machines) and then we'll head out on to the water to get first hand experience. The coaches and other experienced rowers will be there to help in the boat and ensure everyone gets back safely.

Former Rowers 
It may have been many years but we welcome you back for a gentle session on the water. 
 
Sponsored by the City of Port Phillip, senior residents can enjoy a supportive, social and active fun rowing experience on Albert Park Lake followed by morning tea with crew members.
 
Bookings are necessary. Spots are limited
