WOW Team

The NAC currently offers a women’s competitive and recreational rowing program. The Women on Water (WOW) are made up of women of all ages and experience. WOW was formed in 2000 by a group of mothers whose sons and daughters were rowing for the NAC Junior Team. Inspired by the medal-winning Juniors, they banded together to start their own rowing Program at The Newport Aquatic Center. Since that time, the group has grown and expanded into a competitive Masters team more than 35 strong.
