The captain has the following responsibilities:
Names may change as time goes on, and if so, paddlers can be added or canceled via the online management tool by the team captain.
Your registration fee must be paid in full upon registration.
The team captain should be aware of any medical issues someone may have on their team. For example: if someone is asthmatic, do they have an inhaler with them and, if so, someone else should know where it is if he or she needs to get it quickly, both for practices and the event. There is a privacy issue. They do not have to tell anyone anything if they do not want to.
There should be no talking once your team is in the boat. The drummer and steersperson must be able to communicate with the team and each other at all times.
Make certain that each of your team members knows who is sitting beside them in case the boat swamps. Teammates will be responsible for each other's safety until the rescue boat arrives.
Everyone must wear a life jacket during practice and on Race Day.
The drummer should attend all practices. He or she will assist in setting the timing for the team and can be an excellent source of motivation and inspiration during practices and on Race Day.
