Boat
Imperial College Boat Club has won every major rowing event in the country including many wins at Henley Royal Regatta, most recently the Prince Albert Challenge Cup in 2006. Over its 70-year history, the club has also produced several world and Olympic champions.
The boathouse on Putney Embankment houses 80 racing boats, a state-of-the-art gym, clubroom, physiotherapy room, workshop and changing rooms. Training starts in October, beginning in an indoor tank and moving quickly to the river once basic skills are mastered. Both the Mens’ and Womens’ squads are currently thriving, and welcome all abilities and commitments. ICBC provides a great opportunity to train and race on the stretch of river used for the Boat Race, so come on down; experienced or novice, big or small, all are welcome.
