New course in September 2024, but full
    
Following the success of the two courses we ran earlier in the summer, we are organising a third, to run for six week from 1 September. It will be on Sunday mornings, probably from 11.00am for about two hours. Bookings are now closed and the course is full.

Advice for new starters - clothing & location

Clothing. Make sure you bring sports clothing (indoor and outdoor, not too baggy - thin layers are best), trainers and also wellies/sandals/wet shoes. Don't bring anything too precious - things can get a bit dirty or wet quite easily. Hoodies or jackets with open pockets are not allowed when rowing or on the rowing machines, as thumbs can get caught (painfully). A full change of clothing including a towel is advised.

Location. Our location is shown on our web page at www.tynerowingclub.org/pages/contact_or_find_us_10598.cfm. Postcode is NE15 8NL. What3Words code for our front gate is refers.span.door.  We are the club north of the river, just past Branzinos Restaurant/Boathouse PH. There is free car parking at the club (in the car park - sharp right after the pub - or round the front by the river). 

Courses that ran earlier in the summer 

We ran two courses of eight weeeks each, starting on 
Sunday 26 May and Wednesday 29 May and finishing in early August. Those who took part seemed highly satisfied and did very well. Four of them raced in a local inter-club competition on the Tyne on 4 August and won a race, so we must have taught them something - see photo of them on the home page
An alternative - daytime community rowing - Wednesday mornings

If you are free during the day on a Wednesday from 9.30-12.00 our less formal daytime rowing sessions could be for you. It is currently £5.00 a session or you can take out monthly off-peak membership by standing order for £16. It is for all levels of experience from beginner upwards.

If you are interested in the Wednesday morning sessons, then please email Colin Percy at colinwpercy@gmail.com in advance, so we can plan adequate coaching etc.
