Abingdon Rowing Club was established in 1958 to exploit one of the best stretches of water on the River Thames. The distance from end-to-end is some 3,800m which remains relatively free of river traffic, even during the summer months. In this, the club's 50th year, we are looking to build on our recent success, investing in our facilities, equipment and coaching support to provide a training unique training environment for everyone from recreational rowers to athletes with ambition. The Club caters for members of all ages who train between 1 and 6 days per week depending upon their aims, aspirations and commitments. 2007 saw the Club competing at regattas all over the country and winning over 40 events including medals at the National Schools Regatta, National Veteran Championships and National Rowing Championships of Great Britain.
