A great way to have fun and keep fit:
The Nottingham Rowing Club Junior Squad has been, and continues to be, one of the most successful Junior Squads in the country. The squad aims to compete at the main national events such as the Schools’ Head, Women’s Head of the River, Junior Inter-Regional Regatta, National Schools’ Regatta, British Championships, GB trials as well as taking part in more local events.
The squad is integrated with the Senior squad, providing opportunities to develop alongside experienced athletes and attend a wider range of events. Juniors should be at least J16 and show a level of commitment suitable to integrating into a performance senior programme.

Training is a combination of water, ergo and land work and is adapted to fit alongside school and exam periods.
All juniors are coached by qualified coaches who are also DBS checked and hold the emergency first aid certificate. There are also DBS checked athletes within the Senior squad so any crew containing a junior is supervised. We limit the number of participants in the squad to ensure that juniors receive the support they need to reach their potential.
Recent results include:
- 9th at National Schools Regatta
- Silver at Junior Inter-Regional regatta
- Qualification at HWR
- Pre-qualification for the Diamond Jubilee at HRR
- 6th at BritChamps
