Our policies are designed to take into account all the related safety, security and sound health requirements of US Rowing and SafeSport, but also Montgomery County Public Schools. The Whitman Crew Code of Conduct applies to all team athletes and is accepted by all team athletes and their parents/guardians as part of registering for every segment of each season.
We adhere to and require all active rowers to read, sign and review these policies each year, as required by law. Your rower will need a completed and current physical to participate in the sport and will need to pass a swim test as a novice. Whitman rowers are not required to go through the concussion pre-screening, only an acknowledgement of concussion risk that is required by the county for participation in other athletic pursuits.
Please review and print, as needed, knowing that many of the consent and conduct forms are acknowledged and signed electronically during our online registration process.
