We don’t want to lose touch with our former juniors when they leave Cambridge for University, so we have developed an ‘Away-Student’ membership which welcomes away-students back to the Club during University holidays. We’d also like to welcome other Cambridge scullers who are away during term-time but would like to keep up their sculling during the holidays.
The membership fee of £100 offers you:
- the use of Club sculling boats – we will advise which would be most suitable for you and when they are available
- the opportunity to ‘drop in’ on squad sessions
- access to coaching when available – coaches will charge their own rates
- support in attending races on behalf of RRBC
- the opportunity to take part in Bumps – subject to the Bumps eligibility rules
- access to our ergos
- training with members of your former sculling squads
- continuing updates on Rob Roy successes
- invitations to all Rob Roy racing and social events
There are several local races which take place during University holidays, for example:
SEPT
- Great Ouse Marathon
- Cambridge Autumn Regatta
DEC
- Cambridge Christmas Head (fancy dress)
APRIL
- Bedford IVs and Small Boats
JULY
- Bumps
- St Neots Regatta
- Peterborough Summer Regatta
