The women’s squad currently has over 30 members and spans a wide range of ages and abilities. Everyone is welcome – whether you are new to the sport and have just completed the Learn to Row programme, are returning to rowing after a break, or are joining as an experienced rower from another club.

Coxes – both experienced and aspiring – are also very welcome and play a vital part in the success of our crews!

Our members generally row for fitness, for the enjoyment of the sport, and for the friendship and camaraderie that comes from crew rowing. Many also choose to represent the club at local, regional, and national competitions, including our own excellent head races and regatta, which are organised and supported by members from across the club. All of our members have access to coaching, guidance, and support from our experienced rowers, coxes, and qualified coaches.

There are planned training outings on the water on Saturday and Sunday mornings throughout the year, based on availability and river conditions, as well as on several midweek evening water sessions throughout the summer. Through the winter, when it’s not possible to get on the water in the evenings, there is a structured training session on the rowing machine once a week as well as a whole-club circuits session on Monday evenings.

Interested in joining us? We would be delighted to welcome you. For more information, please contact Ros Cheetham
