Since its founding in 1984, Florida Crew has steadily grown over the last 25 years. Today we are the largest sport club on the University of Florida campus, employing four full time coaches, training nearly ninety rowers, and operating out of our own boathouse on Newnan’s Lake.

Our mission is to promote the sport of rowing within the University of Florida. The club is composed of both women and men teams, divided into varsity and novice levels. Our athletes compete in regattas across the country and are coached on the principles of collegiate rowing in a positive and competitive atmosphere.

We receive minimal funding from the University of Florida and work hard at fundraising. Our Row Across Florida campaign has raised nearly $13,000 so far. The support that has been shown by everyone on the team to help us get this fundraiser off the ground has been incredible. This money will be set aside to help us build our boathouse and help finance a new boat for our Women's team.

There are many ways you can support our club:

1. Attend our Family and Alumni Weekend. It is held every year in February and it is our biggest fundraiser. This weekend showcases all of the great things that our Coaches, Rowers, and Alumni do every day to help build our team into the fastest in the country. There is always a full slate of activities planned with a mixer on Friday evening; fun and educational events with a barbeque on Saturday, and a fun game of ultimate Frisbee on Sunday morning. If you would like information on the next event please email Lara Holimon at floridacrw@yahoo.com.
