Membership options at Trent Rowing Club


We believe success on the water comes from commitment on land, early mornings, training sessions with a focus to constantly improve, but we also believe in camaraderie, shared achievements, and a culture that supports every individual’s potential.

If you are looking for more than just a paddle down the river, if you're driven to compete, to train with purpose, and to be part of a club that takes rowing seriously, then we invite you to join us at Trent Rowing Club.

What our rowers have to say about Trent….

  • Joe, Masters

    I’ve been rowing since I was 16 at school, I really enjoy the focus Trent has the 121 training keeps it all fresh. It’s fun!

  • Jim, Masters C

    I started rowing after my daughter joined the club on Learn to Row.

    It's obviously a physical sport, but I love the technical challenge that's involved too. Between the fitness, technique and being out on the river (surrounded by flora and fauna!), it provides a really good stress buster from work and the daily grind. 

  • Emma, Senior

    Focused and fun, that’s how I’d describe Trent RC. We all want to get better and going to regattas across the UK really builds team spirit.
