2026
2026 Camp Registration is Now Open!
Welcome to the 2026 Summer Camp Season! Summer is an incredible time to row in Pittsburgh. Our rivers allow us the opportunity to work in small boats and pursue individualized training in a way that is not often possible during the school year. Conditions in the morning are quite frequently well-suited for skill development and technical improvement.
Three Rivers Rowing Association offers several different programs to allow rowers of all skill levels the opportunity to experience summer rowing in Pittsburgh.
Our Summer Programming has changed a bit in recent years, so please take a look at the new options and contact us if you have any questions.
To discover which camp is right for you, look through the camp descriptions below or contact info@threeriversrowing.org. No experience is necessary, and rowing is open to everyone!
​
U19 Summer Sessions ​
We are again combining our U19 Competitive Camp and our Technical/Sculling Development Camp into one program - the U19 Summer Sessions. We will offer four two-week sessions throughout the summer. Athletes are invited to do as many camps as fit their schedule! This program is open to junior/high school athletes that are seeking a competitive, highly-technical environment. Rowers should have one year of competitive rowing experience. Training and racing will take place in all boat classes, though the camp will take advantage of good weather conditions to particularly focus on time in small boats. Rowers should be adept at both sweep and sculling, or willing to learn. Athletes will have the opportunity to race at both the West Side Invitational and the Midwest Summer Sprints (additional information will be made available as the summer approaches). There may be additional scrimmages scheduled. The coaching staff will come from a variety of local clubs and college programs.

U23/Open Summer Training
Open to college athletes and recent graduates that are seeking significant training access, including rowing equipment and facility access. Rowers should be adept at both sweep and sculling, or willing to learn. In order to keep costs down, athletes will receive coaching at the beginning of the summer as they achieve their flip-test and sculling/uncoached sweeping certification. Following that time, they are welcome to continue training using club equipment with unlimited access. They will have access to all TRRA fitness facilities and the boat reservation system to train whenever the TRRA facilities are open. The TRRA facilities include two weight rooms, two erg rooms, and two rowing tanks - as well as a full fleet of rowing equipment. All athletes who participate in this camp should be prepared to pursue an ambitious training schedule in a competitive environment. Athletes will have the opportunity to race at both the West Side Invitational and the Midwest Summer Sprint Championship, if they are interested. The supervising coaching staff will come from a variety of local clubs and college programs. If you have unique work schedules or training considerations, please Contact Us.

The focus of these camps is learning and fun. The coaching staff will divide athletes up by age range and ability level. Athletes will be taught the proper way to row on the water and indoors and will also learn boat-handling and rowing safety skills.
