Students

Of the approximately 550 clubs affiliated to British Rowing around 150 of these are clubs just for students. University is not only a great place to row but university boat clubs often provide a vibrant social scene as well. Whether you're a newcomer to rowing or an experienced oarsman university rowing can provide something for you.

If you're into competing there are many different competitions available to you as a student. Universities can compete at all levels from novice to elite at BUCS events whilst certain universities have developed a match race against a local rival.  

If you find that regular competition takes up too much of your time once you've graduated you should take a look at British Rowing's Explore Rowing website.   There are lots of ways to keep rowing and activities to fit your new lifestyle. 

British Universities & Colleges Sport (previously BUSA & UCS) run a number of rowing competitions throughout the year for universities.
