Welcome to
Tyne Rowing Club
Tyne Rowing Club is based on the River Tyne at Newburn, just west of Newcastle upon Tyne. It was founded in 1852 and is amongst the oldest sporting clubs in England. We have the longest and best stretch of river for rowing in the north of England.

Event procedure review
Since the cancellation of Rutherford Head in December, the club has been carrying out a review of its procedures for events.  Much effort has been devoted to this review, with a newly constituted and dynamic Events Team established.
 
We have been liaising with providers of water safety cover. Relationships have been renewed and we have met new potential secondary back-up providers as well. We have also been addressing communications issues, looking at more effective radios.
 
A blend of enthusiasm and experience has been applied to this exercise, as we believe it to be vital to the long term success of the events (and the club). It will ensure appropriate high quality and consistency in all competitive rowing activities hosted here.
 
These renewed procedures will be in operation at Tyne Head on 18 February. It promises to be a competitive event, being only four weeks prior to the Head of the River Race (HoRR) on the Tideway. Many crews are pitching their HoRR preparation around a good test over this stretch of major tidal river.
 
We look forward to seeing you there!
Tyne Head coming up
Tyne Head will be held on 18 February. It is an excellent preparation for the Tideway heads. Not quite as long at 5km, but still pretty good. And often conditions are as challenging as you'll get on the Thames.  The poster for the event is now available - click here.
Quiz Night a week later
Our next social event is a quiz night on Saturday 25 February. Teams of five, £12.50 a team. Food from about 8.00pm and quiz about 8.45pm. Poster here. Contact Julian Ringer or Colin Percy asap with your names and entry fee - not many places left!
But the party is over
The Winter Ball at the Assembly Rooms was held on 21 January. Almost all survived intact. 'Most improved' winners were Bridget Stratford, Andy Ireland, Liz Bray and Nick Hunsley; Joanne Rea won the coxing prize. Photos are on Flickr or at the TRC Facebook page.
