Guest Rowing

Experienced rowers who are interested in Williamsburg Boat Club are welcome to participate in Masters sessions on a limited, trial basis.

• Guests must have prior rowing experience and be able to safely handle equipment. A signed waiver and USRowing Basic Membership are required for insurance purposes.

• All guest rowing must take place within scheduled group sessions or with coach approval. Independent rowing is not permitted without prior clearance from a WBC coach.

• New experienced rowers may participate in up to one week of Masters sessions as a guest. Following this trial period, athletes are expected to transition into a standard program membership to continue participating.

• Email mastersrep@williamsburgboatclub.org to arrange your guest rowing!

Visiting Rower Membership

For experienced rowers who are temporarily in the Williamsburg area, we offer a short-term Visiting Rower Membership that allows participation in Masters coached sessions.

​

This option is intended for non-local athletes (those living more than 50 miles from WBC) and is designed for short-term use.

• iCrew registration, a signed waiver and USRowing Basic Membership are required

• Coach approval required

• Typically limited to 1–3 months

​

This membership is not intended to replace participation in a standard Masters membership or other WBC training programs. Athletes who wish to continue beyond this period are expected to transition into a full membership.
