How many players in rowing?

Answer 1

You were probably thinking about how many athletes. You can row in 1x ( one man rowing with two oars ) , 2x (two men each with one oar ), 2 - (two men each with one oar ), 2+ (two men each with one oar and a cox ), 4x (four men each with a pair of oars), 4- (four men each with one oar), 4+ (four men each with one oar and a cox) and there's 8+(eight men each with one oar and a cox). But that's it ;)

Answer 2

This usually varies on the set up. A typical collegiate or high school rowing team will have around 3 8+ of people so around 27. Each 8+ "Eight" has eight rowers and one coxswain. A typical national team will have one of each boat class which totals to around 27 as well if you include "scullers".

Answer 3

First of all in rowing there are not players, they're called rowers.

In rowing there can be up to 8 rowers in a boat and 1 coxswain. This can go all the way down to a single rower (sculler; rower that rows with 2 oars instead of 1).

Answer 4

There need to be 8 rowers to row an 8, 4 for a 4 or quad, 2 for a pair or double, and just one for a single. This is true for practice as well as racing. A rowing race is called a regatta.
