Membership is open to qualified rowers who can demonstrate their rowing proficiency to a designated senior member of the club. An ample number of shells of various types are available for use by club members.
An introduction to sculling course is offered by the club for those with no previous sculling experience. See our Learn To Row section, to find out more about how to learn!
The club is governed by a board of elected members which meets monthly.
