FAQ's

I don’t have a lot of time at weekends. Can I still join?

  • Absolutely. With a range of roles and flexible hours and schedules available, joining us doesn’t take up as much time as you might think.

Isn’t it a lot of hard work? I don’t have a lot of time for training.

  • While some roles have training involved, others don't have any at all. The level and intensity depends on the role you choose. What’s more, we break our free training down into bite-sized chunks that you can tackle at your own pace.

If I join, do I have to spend the day on the water?

  • Not at all. There’s a range of land-based and water-based roles to choose from, and you don’t have to commit to a full day at regattas – choose the hours/schedule that suits you.

If I join, do I then have to become a BRO?

  • You can start with Rowing WA in any role. If you want to become a BRO then you can continue on that pathway to obtain your Level 1 accreditation, or alternatively you can remain in your role for as long as you would like.
