Rigging for younger juniors

No, ergs don't yet float, but some of us do, and here's where you get to discuss that other form of rowing.

Rigging for younger juniors

Post by JoshBurrows » September 1st, 2016, 4:07 pm

I'm starting a new coaching position in the UK, but it is an age group I have never coached before. With junior boys and girls aged 14, what would you recommend rigging wise (blade length, inboard, spans etc.) for singles, doubles and coxed quads for each gender. Hope you can help.

Have you posted on an OTW from as well? You might get some response here, but most members here are strictly ergers. And of the few OTW rowers here, only a small fraction would know much about rigging.
