Rowing Coach – Hampton School

Hampton School are looking for an aspiring Rowing Coach to join one of the country’s foremost academically selective independent schools.

Hampton aspires to be one of the top rowing schools in the country and it is a very popular sport amongst their boys.

The boys row on the Molesey stretch of the River Thames which is just a short run from the school.

The school has a dedicated coaching team headed by its own, full time Director of Rowing, Colin Greenaway, a former international athlete and Junior International Coach for the Great Britain Team.

Pupils begin learning the discipline in the Third Year when they will be taught to scull. The emphasis is on enjoyment and watermanship. There are regular training camps in the holidays, some at the Boathouse, but also in Spain and Belgium.

Hampton’s rowing department has a thriving Parents’ Association which raises funds to support our rowers.

Each year the Hampton School Boat Club hosts two major rowing events on its home stretch of the River Thames: The Hampton Small Boats Head and The Hampton Fours and Eights Head.

Both races are run over a course of approximately 3000m downstream from Sunbury Lock. The first of these events is the Small Boats Head, typically held in late November, with the Fours and Eights head following in late January/early February. Viewing is possible, along the full length of the course; from the towpath running on the south (Molesey) bank from the start at Sunbury Lock to the finish at the western end of Platt’s Eyot.
