About
Avon County Rowing Club in Bristol is a lively rowing community based on the scenic River Avon at Saltford. Run by a dedicated team, it's a hub for rowers from Bath and Bristol of all backgrounds.
What sets Avon County Rowing Club apart is its friendly vibe that makes beginners feel right at home. Many members learned to row here, thanks to the club's commitment to fostering new talent.
For those who prefer indoor rowing, there's the “Go Row Indoor” programme, offering fitness and strength classes on land. It's a great way to stay connected to the sport, even without water access.
Throughout the year, Avon County Rowing Club hosts events like the Avon Bluefriars Small Boats Head, Avon Autumn Head, and Avon Spring Head. The club also organises the Bristol Avon Regatta, a big competition attracting rowers from across the region.
Excitingly, 2022 will see the addition of the Saltford Sprint Regatta to the events calendar, promising fast-paced action for competing rowers.
Members are expected to follow club rules to maintain a safe, respectful environment. There's also an option for Gift Aid, which helps support the club’s growth.
