Founded in 1996 to provide education, training, and participation in rowing, SRA's Club programs offer various opportunities for the Saratoga community.
Recognized as one of the nation's largest and strongest competitive rowing programs for athletes from 7th to 12th grade, SRA provides Scholastic and Community rowing across three seasons. Current offerings include a Learn to Row program for newcomers, Masters Rowing for adults, and, in the last five years, a variety of adaptive programs and Development Camps.
Saratoga Springs has become a premier destination for competitive rowing. SRA's world-class facilities on Fish Creek and Saratoga Lake host major regattas each year.
Notable events include the Head of the Fish, attracting over 160 teams; the Saratoga Invitational with 1,200 entries; the invitation-only Tail of the Fish; the NYS Collegiate Championships; and the NYS Scholastic Championships, a major qualifier for high school teams advancing to nationals.
Established in 2016, the Advanced Rowing Initiative of the Northeast (ARION) is a high-performance rowing program based in Saratoga Springs.
ARION offers elite training for post-collegiate athletes aiming to compete in international events like the World Rowing Championships and the Olympics. With rigorous coaching and comprehensive support for our top athletes, the program has successfully developed rowers who represent the United States on a national stage and beyond.
