BISHOPS ROWING CENTRE

The Rowing Centre provides a place to learn, develop, and belong.

LEARNING

A dedicated rowing tank and training environment where young rowers can develop a deeper understanding of the stroke, boat movement and the principles that underpin great rowing.

TRAINING

Ergometers, strength and conditioning facilities create the foundation for purposeful training, allowing athletes to build the strength, fitness and technical discipline required to perform on the water.

BELONGING

More than a training facility, the Centre is a home for the rowing community. It is a place where athletes, coaches, families and Old Diocesans come together, and a physical expression of the commitment, ambition and pride behind the programme.
