REGISTRATION
REQUIREMENTS

Registration is a multi-step process including requirements from both Ann Arbor Public School and Huron Rowing Association. All steps of each process are vital to ensure your rower’s eligibility to participate on the team and all steps are required to be completed prior to the athlete participating in any on-the-water practice. For liability purposes, Coaches are not permitted to allow athletes to participate unless their registration is incomplete. To ensure your athlete is eligible to practice, please follow the guidance provided below.

Should your family have significant financial hardship, there are scholarships available, and we encourage you to reach out to [email protected] to further discuss options available.
