| Ponteland Junior Head - 18 March 23 - results out now here |
Tyne Amateur Rowing Club sits on the River Tyne at Newburn, about 7 miles west of Newcastle city centre. We have the longest and arguably best stretch of river for rowing in the north of England. And we have a new clubhouse with excellent indoor facilities. See our Welcome page for more details.
The weekend 18/19 March saw a total of six Tyne ARC eights competing on the Thames. On Saturday our senior men’s crews faced tough opposition rowing in the Head of the River Race (HoRR) and competing for the Jackson trophy. The first eight achieved fourth place in the Jackson and finished 38th overall out of 310 crews. The second eight finished 119th and the third eight finished 215th.
The Tyne ARC MasE 8+ crew at Vesta Masters on 19 Mar 23
On Sunday it was the turn of our masters men to face top opposition in the Vesta Masters Head of the River Race. Out of 225 crews, the MasE 8+ (a Tyne/Hexham/Durham composite) finished 39th overall, the MasG 8+ 91st and the MasE 8+ 112th. Well done to all the crews who raced over the weekend and thanks to the coaches who’ve supported them.
And a mention for recent ex-junior at TARC, Matt Hudson, who rowed for Oxford Uni in the Lighweight Men's Boat race on the same water on the Monday. Unfortunately, in his second race for Oxford in this event his crew lost again, so no prize but the satisfaction of reaching this level of rowing so quickly.
