Want to get involved with rowing? You’re in the right place!
Whether you’ve just arriving at Caius or are a current student wanting in on the action, this is the page for you. At Caius almost half of the freshers intake try out rowing – whether it’s to keep fit, be involved with the College’s biggest, most active and most successful sports club or simply to meet loads of people and enjoy the social side.
Every year, we run a Freshers’ Barbeque during Freshers’ which gives everyone a chance to give rowing a try and speak to current members of the club about rowing at Caius. We also have a stall at the college Freshers’ Fair each year.
Don’t worry if you haven’t set foot in a boat before. Very few people arrive with prior experience and Michaelmas Term is the time that the majority of people learn to row. The aim is to compete against all the other novice College crews in the Fairbairn Cup at the end of term. We regularly have novices making it all the way to the First Boats in both the Lent and May Bumps, and some even go on to trial for the University.
Alternatively, you can learn to cox – a rewarding, responsible position offering unique leadership opportunities
