The core of what we believe is about creating a safe and inclusive environment to our athletes of various ethnicity and cultural backgrounds while ensuring a sense of belonging for every athlete. Supporting the P2P program(s) is about creating an inclusive environment where we try to create a safe space that serves to support the identity of each athlete and the character they bring to our club. You help us make a difference.
We have various levels of support that range from program, to equipment and travel. It surprises many when they see how much or equipment costs. For example just a paddle starts at $650 and a set of oars are $850 but that is nothing compared to racing shells for rowing starting at $13,500 for a single and $48,000 for the glorious eights you see at the Olympics.
Types of Support
Support the Sport (Sportsmanship) – This simply means you are part of something. Sportsmanship is a quality we instil on all our athletes both on and off the water. You can support our sports from $25 up to $1,000. This type of support helps provide support for equipment, programs and travel for the youth competitive programs. You can designate to specific programs, groups, sports or simply allow the P2P to be applied.
Podium Support – Standing on top of the podium is one of the greatest feelings an athlete can have. Our Podium supports start at $1,000 up to $5,000 and help provide the essential requirements to our programs. For these donations the target is specific to a program, group or equipment requirements that are done in your name.
MVP Support – When you do this you are REALLY making a difference. Our MVP supporters are typically equipment driven. If we don’t have equipment we don’t have a club. Through this MVP support we create something specifically for you and your company. We want everyone to know the difference you made to not one but many athletes in our community.
