Treasure Coast Rowing Club is heading to Youth Nationals!

After months of brutal workouts, long travel weekends, and countless hours on the water, several of our rowers have officially qualified to compete at the USRowing Youth National Championships in Sarasota at Nathan Benderson Park this June.

For these athletes, this is more than just another regatta. It’s the highest level of youth rowing in the country — and they’ve earned the opportunity to race against the best crews in the nation.

As a nonprofit, community-based program, the cost of Nationals adds up quickly. Training, boat transportation, lodging, entry fees, food, and equipment all become part of the journey. Our goal is to raise $8,500 to help reduce the financial burden on our families and make sure every athlete who qualified has the chance to fully experience this opportunity.

If Treasure Coast Rowing Club has ever impacted your family, inspired your child, or made you proud to be part of this community, we would truly appreciate your support.

Every donation — big or small — helps move these athletes one step closer to the starting line.

Thank you for believing in our athletes and helping us continue to build something special here on the Treasure Coast. 🚣‍♀️🚣‍♂️

Help Support our Rowers to Youth Nationals By Treasure Coast Rowing Club

Along with the signing ceremony, the team also gathered together to christen a new boat. We are proud to officially unveil the “Lee-thal Stroke” — named in honor of the late Lee Williams, whose impact on Treasure Coast Rowing Club and the people within it will never be forgotten. The decal on the boat was created using Lee’s own handwriting, making this tribute even more special. Lee’s support, generosity, and spirit touched so many throughout the program and helped shape the community we have today.

The naming ceremony was made even more meaningful with Lee’s daughter, Joy, and husband, Glenn, there to celebrate alongside the team. We are incredibly grateful for the Williams family and honored to carry Lee’s legacy forward every time this boat takes the water.

Today the team gathered together to celebrate JREC President & Senior AJ Geiser (‘26) as he officially signed his commitment papers to continue his academic and rowing career at the United States Naval Academy. Surrounded by teammates, coaches, friends, and family, AJ marked the beginning of an incredible next chapter built on years of hard work, discipline, and leadership both on and off the water.

We are beyond proud to have watched AJ grow through our program and cannot wait to see everything he accomplishes at Navy.

GO NAVY, BEAT ARMY!

🚨 INTRODUCING OUR 2026 SE REGIONAL CHAMPION - Luke McManus

Luke delivered a dominant performance at the Southeast Youth Championships, capturing first place in the Men’s U17 1x with a time of 7:27. His victory not only earned him a bid to the USRowing Youth National Championship but also solidified his status as one of the top young rowers in the country. Luke is currently ranked 1st in the nation in his event, a testament to his relentless work ethic, focus, and competitive drive.
