A busy but cold day for Rutherford Head on 26 November 2016
Tyne Amateur Rowing Club is based on the River Tyne at Newburn, just west of Newcastle upon Tyne. It was founded in 1852 and is amongst the oldest sporting clubs in England. We have the longest and best stretch of river for rowing in the north of England.
Opening times
The bar and social area are open every evening 6.00-10.30pm and at weekends from the end of rowing till 10.30pm. Outside of these hours the club will only be open by prior arrangement; as at March 2017 we are looking into weekday daytime opening for casual individual access for members.
Squads and facilities
We have active squads for men, women, masters, novices and juniors. We have a good fleet of boats of all sizes and a brand new £1m boathouse, with boat storage, large ergo room, a separate weights room and a large social area with kitchen and bar. As well as rowing we hold regular social events in the clubhouse and elsewhere.
When we train
You will usually find us rowing or training indoors at the club on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 5.30-8.00pm and on Saturdays and Sundays from 8.00am till about 1.00pm. Each squad has its own schedule of sessions - most rowers don't come down every day!
If you are free during the day weekdays, we run less formal Explore Rowing sessions for adults. These are currently only on Wednesday mornings 9.30am-12 noon. Go to this page for details.
Learn to row
We are pleased to welcome new members. If you have some experience on the water, you can probably start right now. If not, we run Learn to Row courses every spring and summer for both adults and juniors, with taster sessions over winter. Or come along to Wednesday mornings (see above)
Get in touch
Please get in touch if you would like to discuss anything or come down for a chat. Use our Contact us page to send the Club Secretary a message - leave your email address and/or telephone number and she'll get back to you straightaway. If expressing an interest in a learn to row course, please use the forms on either the adult or junior L2R page.
