@rbcmsweeps @HOCR Same place as last year....are you ready!

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingwolf7 @HOCR important question: where is the after party this year???

[Sean Wolf @rowingwolf7]

The @HOCR is like Christmas for rowers, I heard yesterday that Red Bull High Stakes is like St Patrick's day for rowers! See you Saturday

@rowingrelated @pbcmensweep @LincolnBoatClub @NYAC_Rowing @espn 20 years ago may be the best time to start, tomorrow is 2nd best! #makeclubrowinggreatagain

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@pbcmensweep @rowingrelated @LincolnBoatClub @NYAC_Rowing @espn Fortunately we are looking to restock annually

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated @pbcmensweep certainly location/size of US plays a factor in lack of events-would be interested in fostering discussion / interest (per why i responded!)

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated @pbcmensweep Gist of it is clubs like us have developed meaningful rosters over the years who wish to compete, and seek greater opportunities to do so

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated @pbcmensweep wouldn't say media is at fault but attention can certainly help foster growth and interest

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated @pbcmensweep example: @pbcmensweep and us kick started dual race last fall between programs. they traveled to PA to scrimmage Barge club as well

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated @pbcmensweep think that greater coverage of opportunities can attract more rowers not to retire after college, and create demand for more regattas

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated @pbcmensweep such a large # of rowers in US at collegiate level, most quit after and lose incentive to support the sport.

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated @pbcmensweep development of the sport? virtually no club racing opps between head racing and summer in US, vs. very vibrant UK club rowing scene

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated this is one of the cornerstones of our program, and similarly at @pbcmensweep, barge club, and (many) more such clubs in UK, etc.

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated that train around work/grad school, largely self-funded and w limited resources and still compete domestically, at Henley, etc.

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated Club nats/canley mostly feature summer rowers - talking about domestic and international year round clubs that are mostly full-time workers

[Riverside Mens Sweep @rbcmsweeps]

@rowingrelated more club rowing coverage (post collegiate / non-elite)!
