Why Learn To Race at City?
We have been very successful with our beginners programmes- winning the beginners pennant at the biggest women’s rowing event in the world and coming second in the equivalent men’s event.
​
There are loads of exciting opportunities to race across the year. For example, we have consistently qualified development crews at the world’s most prestigious women’s regatta - Henley Women’s.
