Hey, Look over there! Aren't those girls members of the Potomac Boat Club?
Potomac boat Club is one of the best, kind of feeder programs onto the national team.
A feeder program is a program that gives you the opportunity and training to compete directly for a position on a high level team.
Rowing is an expensive sport. You have to travel. You have to have a car to transfer your boat. The equipment itself runs between 6,000 and 12,000 dollars for your own shell.
That's right, Yang Chen. They are basically on their own. Luckily for these rowers though, a high-tech company called FortuisOne provides them a secure job, steady income and allow them to focus on their training. Here is the team member Ruth Stiver: "Have found this job, I can manage both things and have you know, both passions in my life."
Crew! Rowing!
Let's keep on rowing, Yang Chen.
