We are a highly successful rowing club with a rich heritage, based in the heart of London.
We are one of UCL’s largest societies, with over 100 members. Every year we aim to
send top Men’s and Women’s crews to the prestigious Henley Royal Regtta, and have the
time of our lives doing it!
This is a club that is going from strength to strength; last year saw the revamping of the coaching structure and the launch of an ambitious 10 year plan, which has already seen us become a force to be reckoned with on the Tideway and beyond.
We train hard under the guidance of 4 time Henley winner, Leander and team GB oarsman, Tom Wilkinson, double Olympian and ex-Olympic Coach Richard Ayling, and Paralympic bronze medal winning cox, Alan “Woody” Sherman.
We also aim to have as much fun as possible. Teams go out every Wednesday for “Sportsnite”, and we have a number of dinners and balls throughout the year to look forward to.
We welcome the experienced and complete novices, Men and Women, rowers and coxes. This year we are aiming to build on our considerable successes last year. With the expansion of our boat fleet and our committee, we are aiming to be top of the pile once again of both London Rowing Clubs, and UCL Societies.
Come and find us at Fresher’s Fayre on 1st and 2nd October, or get in touch by emailing uclu-boatclub@ucl.ac.uk.
