U19 (Junior) Trials
Information about registration for Great Britain Junior/U19 trials
Any junior rower with the ambition to gain GB selection must be a British citizen and have a current British Rowing membership (or Welsh Rowing or Scottish Rowing equivalent). Junior rowers must be registered with the GB Rowing Team Junior Programme by their coach who must themselves be registered. Rowers cannot register themselves.
Full eligibility criteria will be sent to all coaches registered for the GB Rowing Team Under 19 (Junior) Programme. To register as a coach, e-mail Zoe Hainsworth. Registration for 2023 has now closed.
Once registered as a coach you will receive all relevant information regarding the Junior Trials Process and information on how to register a rower.
The trial process is a combination of compulsory land based and water based assessments throughout the season and rowers and coaches must meet the necessary criteria to be considered for selection. Information about each assessment is sent out to all registered coaches.
Coaches can contact Zoe Hainsworth with any questions about the process.
Coaches wishing to enter rowers into J16 Trials for the GB v France Match do not need to register as a GB Rowing Team Junior Coach. Find out more here.
2023 Season
Junior Triallists must be registered with the GB Junior Scheme by a registered coach. Coaches should contact Zoe Hainsworth if they wish to receive information about registration for the 2023 season.

I have a J16 athlete – do I need to register them in November?
No. J16 rowers are not required to attend the Early ID Assessments. J16 rowers are able to attend a J16 assessment in February to be selected for a sculling camp. Please note February assessments are not the time trials for the GB France J16 Match. You can find more information about the J16 Development Programme here.
