Crew??? No. It takes forever - drive/run to boathouse, pre row warm up and boat launching, workout, take care of and put away boat, drive home. [b]A basketball practice is shorter. [/b]It also gets very intense - boats tend to get very tight, and competition for seats on a boat are often intense head to head races, either in a boat or on an erg. It’s a lot.

And it’s WONDERFUL.[/quote]

Bless your heart.  The first day after the varsity team was announced at DS’s school (a Saturday) there were 7 hours of practice scheduled (morning and afternoon, pm with a break for lunch).   Multiple schools in the DMV are consistently ranked in the top 25 nationally, and they send a few kids to the NBA (e.g. Markelle Fultz).   Basketball is 7 days a week all year, at least 2 hours per day (more when there’s practice or a game) every day.[/quote]

Are high school sports allowed to practice year round now? Growing up we asked our coach why we didn't practice year round and I thought the answer involved seasons you were allowed to meet as a team with specific start and end dates.[/quote]
