Junior Rowing (7th - 12th Grade)
The Indianapolis Rowing Center junior program is a rowing club for middle-school and high-school athletes grades 7-12. We are a US Rowing registered club drawing athletes from nearly 20 Indianapolis area schools. The program runs year round with racing being held in the fall and spring and training camps in winter and summer.
During the summer the junior program also holds our Novice Summer Rowing Camp. Accepting youth as young as 12, this is a great way to experience rowing in a more relaxed atmosphere or to get a head start on your first racing season.
As a 501(c)(3) organization, IRC is committed to making the sport of rowing accessible to all interested individuals. As part of this mission, IRC does provide financial assistance.

Adaptive Rowing
The Indianapolis Rowing Center is proud to offer rowing to the physically challenged individuals in the Indianapolis community. IRC has acquired adaptive equipment through a Christopher Reeve Foundation grant allowing us to teach on the indoor rowing machines and then provide on-the-water rowing opportunities.
