Fall Rowing Season Registration

The Tempe Junior Crew Fall Season starts on Tuesday, August 18, 2026 and ends early December.  A virtual team and parent meeting will be held via Google Meets on Sunday, August 17th at 2:00 PM to review details for the upcoming season. If you have not yet received an invitation or link for the meeting and are planning to participate, please send an email requesting access to membership@tempejuniorcrew.org.

And then complete the following:

2. Float Test

All Tempe Junior Crew rowers must have a Float Test on file with us.  If your rower has previously rowed with Tempe Junior Crew, they should have a Float Test already on file and you can skip this step (please confirm that this is the case by emailing membership@tempejuniorcrew.com first).

Several options for completing your Float Test include your local public pool, Kiwanis Recreation Center/Tempe, Valley of the Sun JCC, Cactus Aquatic and Fitness Center, PCDS Pool, or YMCA. the Float Tests must be completed in a pool under the supervision of a lifeguard certified by the American Red Cross or equivalent. We recommend that you call ahead to confirm schedule availability and costs.

Complete your float test form and upload per the instructions on iCrew.
