Stratford Boat Club all set for a bumper summer

Stratford upon Avon Boat Club has taken delivery of two brand new training boats adding another pair and a double scull to add to its fleet.

Said Jen Clements, Stratford Boat Club’s Captain, “These new super stable training sculls are a great addition to our fleet especially with our heavily booked Learn to Row/Explore Rowing courses starting later this month. What is particularly great is that we now have the kit to train and give confidence to adults who are joining us.”

Stratford Boat Club has been delighted to have received much needed grants from The Town Trust and British Rowing to cover this expenditure.

“With the Olympics coming up, we expect a massive surge of adults wanting to row: we now have the kit, all we need now are more potential coaches to come forward for training. This is crucial to moving forward and getting people active”, said Felix Badcock, Stratford upon Avon Boat Club’s President.
