We follow a Twitter account @TheRowingCoach and there was an interesting question from Tobias @soundblaster21
@TheRowingCoach hi any good websites for junior rowing games, either on or off erg looking for something a bit different to do with them. thx
Now we know about ergo golf. Here's the simple way to play:
- set a number of holes and decide the length of each hole in meters.
- Each athlete has to try and complete that distance in the fewest number of strokes.
- Keep score
And we found this more complex version of "Erg Golf" with a score sheet table from the Cascadilla Boat Club.
We found a discussion thread on Coxie.com which included
- teams rowing 1 minute each and aiming for furthest distance
- 500m relays in teams of 5 where each rowed 5 times
- Coxswains yelling out split times (high or low) and the last person to achieve the split is out and gets to yell at the rest with the cox
Any others?
