SPACE COAST CREW
Space Coast Crew is the sport team of Space Coast Crew Boosters, Incorporated, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, established in 1996 to promote the sport of rowing among Brevard County scholastic students in rising grades 5-12. The team was initially formed in 1989 with 22 young women as a club under the direction of John Harbaugh and head coach Pops Atkinson.
Space Coast Crew started when multiple High School rowing teams in Brevard County came together to share resources and equipment. What started as a collection of multiple teams quickly grew to become one club team. From there, the club grew to add more and more student athletes and competitive programs and divisions. Today, over 25 years from our founding, our club serves Elementary, Middle, and High School student athletes from all over Brevard and we run programs for roughly 150 Youth student athlete members between all our programs. We are committed to teaching rowing while simultaneously using the natural lessons that come with our sport to teach youth how to work hard, be patient, and set goals.
We are a parent run, volunteer organization with a professional coaching staff. We depend on parents, community volunteers, and community donors to operate, manage, and maintain our wonderful programs.
