The MBC beginners' rowing camp offers an exciting five days for 13-17 year olds to experience the life of a rower. Molesey Boat Club has built a strong reputation as one of the best rowing clubs in the country, providing excellent training facilities for athletes of all abilities from juniors and novices to Olympians. Eight of our athletes are part of the GB Team competing in the 2012 London Olympics. Throughout the five days the beginners will spend the majority of time on the water in mixed octuples, quads and singles. They will also spend sessions on the rowing machines and will take part in training circuits. The rowing machine sessions allow us to go through the rowing sequence in a stable environment, spending time perfecting each stage of the stroke. The training circuit is an all over body workout focusing on muscles that are essential for a strong rowing stroke.
