Schools Section
Posted by Concept2 News on the 28th of February 2005
Ah, school days. We have nothing but fond memories of our time at Gradgrind Comprehensive. Cross-country in the wind and rain; football in the wind and rain; rugby in the wind and rain with an angry Welshman shouting at us. Great days. Anyway; modern schoolchildren don't even know they're born half the time as more and more schools are starting to use the Indoor Rower. With that in mind, we've recently added a Schools section to our website. The section gathers together several case studies and projects from around the country showcasing the different ways in which the Indoor Rower is being used, whether in competitions, in lessons or as a fundraising tool. The centrepiece of the section is the Schools Training Guide, now available to download for the first time. As well as offering detailed information on technique and how to use the Indoor Rower in a safe and constructive fashion, the Guide also covers all aspects of indoor rowing in schools, from how to integrate the rowing machine into different areas of the curriculum, on how to use it to establish competitions and leagues, to detailed lesson plans, to how to raise money using the Indoor Rower and much more.The Schools section can be found at http://www.therowingcompany.com/schools/
