Easter Training Camp

This year we are on training camp in Holland, on the Bosbaan rowing lake which hosts the KNRB Olympic Rowing Team. The Bosbaan is the oldest artificial rowing lake in the world, containing 8 lanes and a 5km running track around the outside. It will also be hosting the World Rowing Championships in 2014.


We will be leaving on the 11th of April and arriving home on the 18th. We are travelling there via minibus and train, with the group convening for the overnight ferry to Holland. As usual, details to follow regarding more specific times.


Places on the trip will be allocated based upon training and racing performances, and rowers from all year groups will have the opportunity to attend.

Hell And High Water

The red boards have been up all week, and as a result our outings have been extremely limited this week. Yesterday, training with part of the squad from Kingston University, we completed the "rowing triathlon" consisting of circuit training, erging and running.
