Welcome to Recreational Rowing!
This site is for people
who love rowing but who can't commit to the demanding training schedules
needed for serious competition. Recreational rowers have a lot of
fun - as well as regular outings, we
-
visit other like-minded clubs and
row on different waterways
-
go touring
-
take part in challenges
such as long-distance time trials
-
do fun events such as "splash and dash" races and skills
competitions - see our Sunday Leagues pages
