Learn to row


Westover offer a 5-6 week water based course in basic rowing technique, allowing you to follow in the footsteps of our Olympic heros!

Over roughly 8 sessions our club coaches hope to get you rowing smoothly and confidently.

Each water session is accompanied by a experienced Coach in a safety launch.

The course includes:

  • Tuition on one of our 8 Concept 2 rowing machines in the basic rowing stroke
  • Boat safety and confidence on the water
  • Boat handling and manoeuvring
  • Progression to crew rowing in one of the club’s coxed fours

To sign up you can either use the contact details on the ‘contact us’ section of the website to get in touch with us or visit us at the bowls club on a Thursday evening from 6.30pm.  If you like what you see you can take part in a few training sessions and then complete a membership form.
