If you are athletic and would like to try a new sport at a Division I program, then rowing could be the sport for you. The Cardinal rowing program will host an informational meeting on Thursday, Aug. 25 and Monday, Aug. 29 at the Red Barn on the U of L campus at 6 p.m.
At the University of Louisville, we will teach you how to row and train, which allows you the opportunity to race other novice programs from all over the United States.
To be eligible, you must be an undergraduate student in full-time studies and in good academic standing. If you are a freshman and would like to try out, please register with the NCAA clearinghouse as soon as possible. You can do this online at www.ncaaclearinghouse.net.
Following the informational meetings, we will start tryouts on Tuesday, Aug 30, with the 1 mile run test at Cardinal Park. For the tryout, please bring a photo copy of both sides of a active health insurance card, running shoes, water and workout gear. If you are under 18 years of age, please let the coach know as you will need to have a parent sign some paperwork to allow you to tryout.
We encourage all interested people to give it a shot because you may find the perfect sport for you. It is a great team sport that offers plenty of opportunity to improve.
We look forward to seeing you on Aug. 25 or Aug. 29 at the Red Barn at 6 p.m. or you can stop by at our Cardinal Red Rowing Tent at the base of the SAC ramp during the first week of school to find out more. If you would like to email or call coach Laurie Featherstone before tryouts, please do so at 502-852-8121 or email at lfeather@hotmail.com.
Sincerely,
Laurie Featherstone
