PRACTICE
Practice is the foundation of success in any sport. Rowing is a unique sport in regards to practice: If just one member of a boat does not attend practice, the eight other athletes in that boat are unable to practice. Therefore, all athletes are expected to attend all scheduled practices.
Not attending practice has the following effects:
- The absent athlete does not develop when they do not practice.
- Other athletes are unable to practice.
- Not attending practice may, or may not, have the following effects:
- Athlete is removed from a boat and replaced by another athlete for practice.
- Athlete is removed from a boat and replaced by another athlete for a race.
While athletes are expected to attend all scheduled practices, the coaching staff recognizes that legitimate conflicts arise and perfect attendance is unrealistic. Conflicts that are considered legitimate are: religious, family, medical, employment and academic.
When at all possible, athletes and parents or guardians should notify coaches in advance of an impending absence. Such notification helps mitigate all the negative effects of missing practice.
CANCELLATION
On the water practice continues in all weather conditions, except lightning. Indoor practice continues in all weather conditions. If classes at Plant High School are cancelled, then practice is cancelled.
HALF & FULL DAYS OFF
On a half-day of school, practice continues on the normal practice schedule. In the case of a full day off from
school (except major holidays), practice will follow the normal Saturday schedule.
