Set up your school for long-term success

Congratulations!

Concept2 Indoor Rowers give schools an excellent opportunity to increase student participation in school PE and sports activities.

The challenge is to attract students not involved in mainstream PE and sports

Increasing student participation means successfully attracting and retaining groups that are usually harder to reach, especially teenage girls, overweight children, different cultures and other minority groups.

We asked some schools running successful indoor rowing programs: “What are the key factors in your success?” Here’s what they said:

• Attracting students to participate – Using technology to make rowing visual and cool, to make it feel like a computer game that students can have fun playing while they exercise.
• Overcoming the practical challenges – Providing rowing coaches with tools to quickly create training programs, teach rowing technique, and record and analyze results, so they can handle larger groups of students.
• Keeping students motivated – Enabling students to compete with themselves or in intra and inter-school team competitions to transform the PE activity into a competitive sport with longer-term development opportunities.

Overall, Schools say getting students to want to take part is the most critical success factor.

That’s where RowPro helps!

Feedback from schools shows that RowPro is a powerful magnet that attracts students to participate in rowing and motivates them to keep rowing over the long term.

Research shows that when people use RowPro:

• They row 15% more often.
• Twice as many feel “alive and energized” after rowing.
• Three times as many use a professional plan.
