Interested in taking up rowing?

 

Rowing offers significant health, fitness and well-being benefits for our members who range from 18 to 80's.

 

Medway Towns Rowing Club offers Introduction to Rowing Courses to get you on the water as part of a crew. 

 

The course consists of 6 sessions held on Sunday morning and Thursday evenings over a 3 week period where you will receive coaching and instruction on dry land and water rowing skills. The course cost is £90, and rowers joining the club are entitled to 3 months reduced membership fees.

 

Rowing is a physical sport, we handle boats in and out of the river and use the tidal River Medway. To be able to participate safely you will need to be free from injury, capable of swimming 50m unaided, and can complete 2km on a rowing machine within a reasonable time.
