Whether you are an incoming first year who has never even heard of the sport or an alum of the rowing team I am here to answer your questions! Ask about what our training is like, racing, balancing academics and sport, whatever!

Some quick facts:

We are the most successful men's rowing team in Canada. Winning our fourth national championship in a row this year, making 10 it all-time.

We recruit and train novice rowers! We take in UBC students who have never rowed before and teach them to race. In fact some of our most successful athletes started their careers as novices.

We row on the North arm of the Fraser out of the J.M.S. Lecky UBC Boathouse.

This year we were the first Canadian team ever to join the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation, letting us compete against some of the best schools in the world like Univ. of Washington and Cal Berkley.

Interested in university rowing in Canada? Want to learn about what training is like? What the Canadian racing calendar looks like? I'm here to answer any and all questions. Junior athletes feel free to reach out if you have any questions about recruiting and what it takes to make the team!
