A stable quad setting off with genuine 'first time ever' trainees on 21 April 2024
Tasters in April 2024 - all full - sorry!
We were were offering three taster sessions, but two have now run and the third on Sunday 28 April is full.
Courses starting 26 & 29 May 24 - booking closes 1 May 24
Two courses will run. One will be on Sunday mornings and the other on Wednesday evenings:
Sun 26 May 24 from 11.00am to 1.00pm for eight weeks
Wed 29 May 24 from 6.00pm to 8.00pm for eight weeks
Finish times are approximate - it may be later if we are enjoying ourselves in lovely calm and sunny weather. The cost will be £100 all-in for the eight sessions. Those who want to carry on rowing after the courses are normally regrouped at the end of the summer into the new Novice Squad and start paying monthly subs.
Bookings for the L2R courses is opened on 22 April and those interested are asked to reply by 1 May. We'll start confirming places then. Later entries will go to the back of the queue (if there is one). Money in full will be required by a week before your course starts, at the latest.
The format of the course and more info on booking and paying is set out in the L2R 2024 Briefing Sheet downloadable below.
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).
