Recreational rowing on the Thames. Beginners, new members and visiting clubs welcome.
There is still time to enter a crew into one of the rowing events at the regatta, but have you thought about racing a Dongola. After all what can be simpler than 6 people racing a paddled punt over a hundred metres or so. The winning crew is often the one that manages to go in a straight line. On line entries are open now.
It’s not too late to enter the regatta. With 4 weeks of training starting on Monday now is the time to get your team together for the Goring and Streatley Regatta on 25th July – entries are now open for coxed 4s . We will teach you how to row a 4, or provide training if you have entered the regatta before, and racing will take place at our regatta on the 25th of July. You can enter online via this website.
In summer, all that intense training for the regatta can leave you feeling tired – but GGBC has two punts, which we keep in Streatley.- the ideal way to unwind, drifting lazily under the willows…..
Saturday 13th June – Exchange with Adventure Dolphin. Ever fancied learning how to canoe? Do you want to know what it’s like to face the other way in a boat? Well, now’s your chance…come and have a go. Meet at 09:00 at the GGBC boathouse. No previous experience needed.
Now the clocks have changed we are resuming Thursday evening rowing at 18:00. Quiet evenings are a great opportunity to see the river at it’s best. Of course our normal Saturday morning sessions at 09:00 and Sundays at 10:00 continue. New members are welcome at any session.
