The Long Beach Rowing Association is proud to be a USRowing Training Center Partner in a collaborative effort to help develop the next generation of athletes representing the United States internationally. The “High Performance Fund” was established in June 2012 to support athletes training at the pre-elite to elite levels. LBRA will sponsor athletes who successfully complete the application process and are approved by the LBRA Board. Consideration includes but is not limited to ergometer testing results and recent regatta performance. Results will be compared to the standards established by the International Rowing Federation (FISA) and used by USRowing for national team selection.
In exchange for sponsorship, athletes must be full members of the Long Beach Rowing Association, register with Long Beach Rowing Association affiliation during competition, wear a Long Beach Rowing Association uniform during competition, and list Long Beach Rowing Association as their training center in bios, media and/or advertising during the support year. If the requirements are not met, funding will not be provided.
