Row Toronto

FREE ROWING PROGRAM FOR TEENS

Launched in 2024, Hanlan’s Row Toronto program offers youth from local community organizations a chance to build fitness and have fun while learning a new sport. During the four-week program, run by a team of certified Hanlan coaches, youth master the basics of the rowing stroke and how to row together as a crew in a safe, welcoming environment. Participants are also taught how to eat well for sports performance and strategies for balancing the demands of being a student-athlete. All transportation, life jackets, rowing equipment, and snacks are provided.
