Mens Senior Squad
The Men’s Squad
The City of Oxford Men’s Squad is open to experienced rowers looking to compete at a high domestic club level. We specialise in Sweep rowing but there is the opportunity to scull if you are interested. Throughout the year the squad races at a range of events, including the key dates of HoRR, and Henley Royal Regatta. We welcome athletes who are looking to push themselves on a challenging training programme, aim high, and ultimately enjoy the sport and being part of a close-knit team.
The squad has previously enjoyed successes such as a second place finish at pairs head, several top 30 finishes at sculler head, and regular qualification for Henley Royal Regatta – including three qualifying boats in 2021 and 2022. We are able to cater to both students and professionals, with a flexible time schedule and the bulk of training taking place during evenings and weekends.
About the Squad
There is an expectation that if you want to perform well, you need to train well. Training is built around weekend mornings and mid-week evenings on the water. There is flexibility within the programme for real life for those who need it and can be arranged with the Captain and coaches. Our training is supported by our successful and committed coaching team and a good fleet of both small and big boats.
The Senior Squad is composed of those athletes who can commit to the demanding training programme from September until Henley Royal Regatta – we train hard, and play hard!
