The RCA Level 1 Umpire Clinic is a four-hour clinic intended to provide an easily accessible entry point into the RCA Umpire Education Program. The session is meant to attract participants from across Canada. You do not need to be in Ontario to take this session. RCA’s approach to athlete, coach and umpire development is systematic and follows the simple principle of “athletes first”. As such, the Umpire Education program embraces the Athlete Development Pathway approach to rowing.
There is no specific prerequisite experience required to take the Level 1 Umpire Clinic, and you do not need to live in Ontario. If you have some knowledge of the sport of rowing, are committed to ensuring a safe and fair regatta experience for all competitors and are looking for a way to give back to the sport then umpiring may be a great fit for you!
