Our Learn to Row course for the 2025/26 season has ended, but we frequently offer Learn to Row programmes via Wairau Rowing Club throughout the year; keep an eye out on our socials and learn more!
More information regarding the yearly Learn to Row Course for the 2026/27 season will be announced closer to the time.
Rowing combines fitness and fun, offering physical challenge and team camaraderie. Whether casual or competitive, it brings satisfaction on the water. Our head coach, Clayton, has strong experience coaching coxswains, who learn boat dynamics, coaching skills, and leadership. Marlborough Boys' College Rowing Club offers lifelong friendships, intense training, nationwide travel, and the chance to represent the school. Many hesitate to try rowing due to misconceptions about body type or fitness, but these should not stop you from joining.
