WHAT WE LOOK FOR?
It is not necessary to have rowing experience to join the team.
Everyone joining the team must try out, even if they have rowing experience. The program strives to look for committed, high-performing, and determined student-athletes. Tryouts occur early in the school year, usually during the second or third week of the fall and spring semesters. Anyone interested in trying out for the team should fill out the Recruit Questionnaire at the bottom of this page. There, you will also find information for contacting our freshman/novice coach.
Villanova Men's Rowing seeks heavyweight (165+ lbs.) and lightweight (sub 165 lbs.) rowers. Rowers tend to be tall; height is an enormous advantage, although it does not guarantee success. Again, the team is looking for the best possible athletes.
We invite you to please fill out the application below if you are interested in joining the team.
