You don’t have to have fall crew to become a great rower, but cross training for three seasons is helpful. Andover, SPS, and Exeter all have strong spring crew programs and excellent cross country programs, which is great cross training for crew. Andover and SPS (especially SPS) have good nordic skiing in the winter, which is fantastic cardio training for rowing. If you want fall competitive rowing, Choate and NMH both have fall crew and compete at Head of the Charles, although NMH races more races overall than Choate. Both race 4s in the fall. NMH also has nordic skiing. Deerfield rows 4s and has a strong program as well as good cross country, but no nordic and no fall crew.
