rowing competitions
Crew team events
Rowing competitions are races between boats propelled by oars, typically on rivers, lakes, or specially designed courses.
Events range from Olympic regattas to college rivalries like the Oxford-Cambridge boat race.
Competitors race in shells of various sizes, from single sculls to eight-person boats with a coxswain: She trained for years before making the national rowing competition.
