Plymouth University have recently received partnership funding from British Rowing for an 'Explore Rowing Project'. This allowed them to purchase 2 sliding seat touring gigs and one GRP 6 oared pilot gig. The Uni are running adult learn to row courses through their Active Universities project.
The Vision
The idea is that adults learning to row will attend a 6-8 week learn to row course with the University and then be signposted to local clubs. This way all learners are at the same stage, and can progress together. This also takes the strain off clubs having lots of newcomers. ALL adults are welcome, you do not have to be a University student.
I want to learn to row, what do I do?
