Our weekly rowing programme offers something for everyone, giving all members the opportunity to get out on the water through a range of sessions. Whether you’re an adult or junior, looking to refine your rowing technique, train hard for regattas, or enjoy a social row, there’s a session to suit you. Just book via Spond and arrive ready to row.
Being part of the club is about more than just rowing. Every member is expected to play a role in maintaining our three St Ayles Skiffs, supporting the bosun to keep them sea worthy and race-ready. “When we all pitch in, we all get out!“
