Our club mascot Candy!

From March through to October we train virtually every night of the week (see the noticeboard for the timetable) and race at least once or twice a month, usually on Saturdays. You can be as committed or casual a member as your circumstances allow - from training 3 times a week, racing at weekends, and baking cakes/flipping burgers for fundraising purposes, to coming along for an enjoyable row on a sunny night every now and then, or anything in between!


We have 4 Gigs - Petroc (launched in 2004), Vixen (re-launched 2008), Teazer and Dasher and regularly use at least 3 on training nights.

Our Club Aims:

SOCIAL - To be a friendly and inviting club, where members can enjoy both the fitness and social aspects of rowing.

YOUTH DEVELOPMENT - To actively encourage as many local children as possible to participate in the sport, and progress through the juniors into the senior crews.

COMPETITIVE - To do our very best at events, through commitment, technical training and fitness.

SAFETY - To conduct our rowing (both when training and at events) in the safest manner possible.

FINANCIAL STABILITY - To raise enough money through membership, sponsorship and fundraising events to cover the costs of running the club and updating equipment.
