Power Ten Rowing is a scholastic rowing club open to 7th - 12th grade students from Orlando area schools.
Previously associated with Bishop Moore High School, Power Ten began its rowing program in 1996. From those humble beginnings, with borrowed equipment and volunteer coaches, Power Ten has grown into a full-fledged scholastic program for both Men and Women. Power Ten has its own dedicated coach, its own fleet of boats (4-8's and 3-4's), training equipment, launches, food/gear trailer and a wonderful group of student atletes.
Returning to its roots as a club team in 2006, Power Ten is now able to recruit rowers from all area high schools (and middle schools). For students whose schools do not have a rowing program, Power Ten is a great option. Power Ten is actively seeking student who want to row where the smaller team size means more time in the boat per rower and serious-but-fun approach to rowing amps up the fun quotient.
Power Ten rowers have worked hard and brought home medals and cups from around the state of Florida. The Women's teams earned prestigous 1st place finishes in the State Championships for Women's single sculling and Women's Varsity 4 in 2006-2007 season. The Mens Varsity team finished the 2006-2007 season with a 3rd in Southeast Regionals competition and earned an invitation to Nationals. Hard work and dedication pays off with medals and cups and recognition for Power Ten performance.
Even while winning medals and awards, Power Ten requires that its rowers be STUDENT ATHLETES. Rowing is an intense workout that develops cariovascular strength and endurance, and it is also very time consuming. Despite that our rowers perform at or above their class level and tend to perform at the top of their class in GPA.
Financial support for Power Ten comes through rower dues, Power Ten sponsored booster/fundraising activities (such as the annual Sunrise Sprints Regatta in November), advertising opportunities and individual fundraising activities, often in conjunction with major city/county venues such as the Bob Carr Performing Arts Center and the Amway Arena. Power Ten will work with any rower who is committed to its program, showing the discipline and motivation to practice and compete, to make sure financial constraints do not stand in the rower's way.
