WOMEN'S
ROWING

"UCLA Athletics enabled me to experience college beyond just the classroom and the water. I have been pushed on and off the water, allowing me to grow as an athlete but more importantly as a leader and as a person. I am proud to be a Bruin and I am excited to continue representing the school and athletic department during my final year here. Support from the alumni is one of the main reasons we are able to do what we do and is a great reminder of the historic successes of our athletic programs and provides a link for these successes to continue in the future.”

-Senior, Audrey Loeb

Recruiting is the foundation of sustained success. Expanded resources allow us to identify and secure elite national and international talent, strengthen roster depth, and maintain championship-level competitiveness year after year.

Modern, matched racing shells improve performance consistency, athlete safety, and competitive parity. Fleet modernization ensures our athletes train and race with equipment that matches the standards of the nation’s top Rowing programs.

3. Training Equipment Upgrade

Concept2 Ergometer Upgrade – $20,000

Impact

Upgrading our ergometer fleet allows the entire team to train simultaneously, improving efficiency, accountability, and data-driven athlete development during critical training phases.

4. Program Endowment

Establish a endowment to provide lasting support for operating and competitive needs.

Impact

A dedicated endowment provides long-term financial stability, supporting operating and competitive needs while protecting the program from annual budget fluctuations. This investment creates a lasting legacy of excellence.

5. International Competition
