Welcome:

Welcome to the home page of Aberystwyth Rowing Club. We are a sea rowing club based on the Mid-Wales coast in the seaside town of Aberystwyth. The majority of club rowing takes place in fixed seat rowing boats with 4 rowers and a cox per vessel. We also have some more modern-styled sliding seat boats, which we encourage members to progress to over time. The club compete in events of the Welsh Sea Rowing Association's Northern and Southern leagues all around the Welsh Coast ranging from Bull Bay in the North to Pembroke Dock in the South. We also compete in non leagues events a little further afield including the Thames Great River Race, Cork Ocean to City Race (Eire) and the biannual Celtic Challenge race from Arklow to Aberystwyth. The club are also heavily involved in the organisation of the latter and are now gearing up for its next installment in 2012. On this page you will find some of our online resources. If there's anything you would specifically like to know, please get in touch using the details below.

'Try Rowing' Sessions

The club is taking a different approach to novice rowing this year. We are delivering structured short courses of around 5 sessions with a mixture of theory and practical instruction. These are designed to be a fun and low pressure way to try the sport with fellow newcomers. Each course is lead by a dedicated instructor and you will be with the same group of people throughout. To join the waiting list for our next course, please complete and return our brief questionnaire (MS Word).

2011 Aberystwyth League Race
