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.
 
Squads
 
We have active squads for men, women, veteran men, intermediates, novices and juniors. We have a good fleet of boats of all sizes, a roomful of indoor rowing machines and a small weights room. As well as rowing we hold regular social events in the club and elsewhere.
 
When we train
 
You will usually find us rowing or training at the club on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 6.00 to 8.00pm and on Saturdays and Sundays from 8.00am till about 4.00pm. Each squad has its own schedule of sessions - most rowers don't come down every day!
 
Learn to row
 
We are pleased to welcome new members. If you have some experience on the water, you can probably start right now. If not, we will be running Learn to Row courses in summer 2012 for both adults and juniors.
 
If you are free during the day weekdays, we run less formal sessions for adult beginners on Wednesday mornings, using our Explore Rowing stable boats.
