Membership and Joining Details

The club offers members of the local community and surrounding areas the opportunity to pursue the sport of rowing at all levels from recreational through to international standard competition. Our club members are ambassadors for the sport rowing and the city of Bath who represent their club and city at many rowing and charitable events throughout the UK and overseas.

We are registered with rowing’s national governing body, British Rowing, as a club which offers inclusive participation in the sport. We have established strong partnerships with community groups and charities and provide access to club facilities to groups with special needs.

We have a thriving junior (age 13 to 18) section, and run regular supervised training sessions at 1030 on Saturday and Sunday mornings throughout the year. We also run midweek after school sessions throughout British Summertime (April to September). If your child is interested in rowing then please contact the Club President or Club Captain.

Throughout the Spring/Summer we run a number of Learn to Row courses which are specifically designed to introduce adult novices to the sport of rowing. All aspects of rowing are covered, sculling, rowing, training, ergo (Rowing Machine) technique. These courses are followed up by regular beginners training sessions twice a week for the rest of the summer.

If you are interested then go to the Learn 2 Row page on this website, look out for adverts in the local press or on the B&NES Council Sports and Active Leisure website, or come down to the club on Saturday or Sunday mornings.
