rowing crews
Boat race squads
Rowing crews are teams of rowers who propel racing shells through water using oars.
The term appears most often in collegiate and competitive contexts, where crews train and race together as coordinated units: The rowing crews practiced at dawn on the river.
A crew typically includes a coxswain who steers and calls commands.
