This will be the 8th year of the Florida Sprints League Championship. It will be held on Saturday, April 13th, 2013 at the Tampa By-Pass Canal.

Drawing inspiration from historical sources such as the Boat Race, the EARC Eastern Sprints League, and NEIRA, the teams in the FSL have sought to reorganize their season around dual and tri races. These races facilitate day trips rather than overnight regattas, do not require the labor and production of hosting a large regatta and can be held on a greater variety of bodies of water in any team’s hometown.

The Florida Sprints League, therefore, is more than a championship match-race regatta held two weeks prior to the FSRA State Championship. It is, and will continue to become, an approach to organizing your team’s racing season.

I can only speak to Capital City Rowing’s experience with this style of racing, but we have dramatically cut our regatta budget, our season is considerably more manageable because half our races are held in Tallahassee, and when we travel out-of-town we can make daytrips. No longer does the season have the déjà vu factor in which it seemed like we raced the same five teams on the same bodies of water every weekend. By adding shirt-trading, all our rowers meet and shake hands with their opponents. Our parents and our opponent’s parents interact more as do the coaching staffs. All in all, it’s been enormously positive experience.

The guidelines that we have asked of FSL teams are as follows:

3.     Trade shirts. One of the best features of the FSL is shirt trading. The loser hands their shirt to the winner. The shirts can be simple one-color designs, but should clearly reflect your team name and logo.

We seed events based on participants. Visit www.row2k.com AND www.floridarowing.org. When we seed the FSL Championship, it’s important to have access to all the results.

While these event classifications may seem limiting, they’re actually not. The classifications are designed to fit your current boatings. For instance, if you have 1M8, LM8, and FM8, then you’ll probably enter the LM8 in the 2nd 8+ event and Frosh in the 3rd 8+ event. There is no need to rearrange your entries. 

This regatta is a chance to get your States lineups 2-3 rows in the same lineups two weeks prior to the event.

I'm going to give my own testimonial here... I was lucky enough to be coached by
Kris for about 2 hours about 20 years ago and it was one of my best rowing
practices ever.  I've also been lucky enough to be in the launch with him and
watch his coaching technique.  He is the rowing guru!  I'm not even coaching or
rowing much anymore, and I would still love to go to this clinic.  Just wanted
to throw my experience out there for those who may not know how incredible he
is.  If you can make it, you should go!

Dear FSRA Board Members and Reps,

USRowing is offering a coaching clinic led by Kris Korzeniowski and hosted
by FIT on September 29/30.  For those who do not know Kris, he is one of the
most respected international level coaches in the US.  He is the "go to"
consultant of Mike Teti and many other of our elite level coaches.  Coaching
education is a passion of his and he is looking forward to working with the
coaches who attend this clinic.
http://www.usrowing.org/DomesticRowing/Coaches/CoachingClinics/UpcomingClini
cs.aspx

This program is not a certification program (Level I or II), it is specific
to on the water topics, with an the unique opportunity to go on the water
with Kris and a crew that he will work with while all the participants are
watching from coaching launches.

Topics include-
1. Rowing technique on the water
2. Rowing technique via video analysis
3. Training programs, periodization, land training led by Kris and weigh
programs led by Casey Galvanek
4. Training programs from various successful programs from around the
country
5. Lots of time for questions and answers

The program is designed to convey quality information in a casual setting.
The program will be over 13 hours over the course of Saturday and Sunday for
$125.  We hope that your coaches will be able to take advantage of the
clinic.  I will be sending a quick email to your members as well as other
clubs and college programs in Florida.  This program is open to all coaches.

Please contact me if you have any questions,
