Training Management

Keep every squad on the same summer plan.

Publish school sessions, club days and regatta preparation once. Members tap in, coaches set crews, and nobody has to decode a shared training sheet before dawn.

What is training session software for a New Zealand rowing club?

Training session software gives school and club squads one programme for recurring rows, erg work, club days and special sessions. Members make one-tap rower, volunteer or coach responses. Automatic reminders and cancellation notices keep the week current, while session plans, iCal, actual attendance and crew planning stay connected through the summer racing season.

All plans include the session workflow. See New Zealand pricing for the club bands.

Members respond

Count people by the job they will do

Session types can gather rower, volunteer or coach attendance. A one-tap answer updates the list, and automatic reminders prompt anyone who has not replied.

Coaches know the squad and support numbers before the trailers move.

Editing a New Zealand rowing session and coaching plan

Run the session

Bring the plan to the lake

Keep pieces and coaching notes on the session, link confirmed rowers into crew planning, and alter one date for weather. Mark who trained at the water.

The programme records the intended work and the actual turnout.

Turn a busy summer programme into one clear list

School squads, masters and club crews can all follow the right session without another version of the weekly sheet.

Without Row HQ

  • A poll lost between school and club messages
  • A training sheet copied for every squad
  • Weather changes relayed through several parents
  • Club-day volunteers tracked away from the crew list
  • Selection memory replacing a proper attendance record

With Row HQ

  • One-tap replies matched to each squad session
  • Automatic reminders before early starts
  • Cancellation notifications sent to the right people
  • Summer attendance in the admin dashboard
  • One calendar for rows, ergs and club days

Session planning questions from New Zealand clubs

What school and club programmes need before a busy summer calendar goes live.

Yes. Separate recurring templates can cover after-school squads, masters rows, weekend club days and erg work. Admins can add a one-off trial or briefing without altering the normal timetable. Members see their sessions on one calendar and respond from the phone rather than several group chats.

The response choices follow the session type. A training row can collect rowers and coaches, while a club day can also ask for volunteers. Everyone answers with one tap. The combined list gives organisers a clear view before they arrange crews, launches and support tasks.

Yes. The template keeps creating the regular squad sessions, while a coach edits or cancels only the affected date. A changed lake, rough forecast or school commitment does not disturb later weeks. Extra race preparation can sit as a one-off session beside the repeating calendar.

They do. Automatic reminders go to members who still need to reply. If a session is cancelled, the attached people receive a notification and the club calendar changes. iCal subscribers also have the same current programme in their personal diary throughout the summer racing build-up.

Confirmed rowers link directly into the crew planning tools, where coaches can arrange boats and seats. The session plan holds the warm-up, pieces and technical focus. Coaches then mark actual attendance at the water, leaving a useful record through school racing, club days and regatta preparation.

Give every squad one current programme

Publish the summer week, gather each role, and plan crews before the trailers or boats move.
