The Eric the Red program introduces Toronto youth ages 11-17 to the sport of rowing in a unique and fun environment. It is the only rowing program in North America that uses Viking boats that are designed specifically to help introduce youth of all athletic abilities to the sport of rowing in an easy step-by-step manner. Every year we strive to ensure a safe and positive learning and racing environment for all participants, and our dedicated coaching staff specialize in creating a fun environment to instill values of teamwork, dedication and hard work. There are no tryouts or cutting of teammates - just show up and row!
