| Rutherford Head (21 in 22) - poster here & entries now open on BROE |
Conditions we are going to get for Rutherford - promise!
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.

Tyne ARC decided in the autumn (with great reluctance a couple of days beforehand) to cancel Rutherford Head due on Saturday, 27 November 2021. This was because of a forecast of exceptionally strong winds, cold temperatures and rain/snow - Storm Arwen. This was a good call, given the extremhly high winds the day before and overnight into race day, though they had moderated a bit by race time.
The club will now run Rutherford Head on 12 February 2022, the date that was in the calendar for Tyne Head (which is now cancelled). The poster is out - see here - and entries opened at 6.40pm on Monday 17 January 2022. We were not expecting and did not get the very large set of entries on the opening night, but numbers are healthy and continue to grow steadily.
