Indianapolis Area Rowing
Updated December 19th, 2009 | No Comments »Doggett’s Coat & Badge Race was the first documented rowing race, which took place in London in 1715 and continues today. Rowing, which is frequently referred to as crew, consists of two types: sweep and sculling. In sweep, rowers use both hands to use one oar, whereas in sculling, two oars (sculls) are used (one in each hand).
