CAPTAIN PRACTICES Early Morning Captain Practices – Not mandatory but suggested Monday , Wednesday and Friday mornings - 5:45am to 6:30am. Meet at the High School weight room. Coach Boris will confirm the morning practice after looking at the weather. He will do so around 9pm the night before. Only those athletes that are sleeping 8 or 9 hours will be allowed to run. If parents believe that their rowers have not slept enough, rowers will not be allowed to go to early practice. Going to the early morning practice without enough rest will have a negative result. Thanks, Boris EASTER BREAK SCHEDULE The Easter break schedule will be as follows for mandatory practice. The only day off will be Easter Sunday. Thursday March 29 - times/ location TBD. Friday March 30 - times/location TBD Saturday March 31 - times/location TBD Sunday April 1 - no practice.
