Welcome to the re-vamped University of Birmingham Boat Club home page.
The club is changing both internally and externally, new coaches and equipment are coming in to the club and as a result our success levels are going up. This site is just part of the improvements being made and hopefully reflects them!
With our recent success has come acknowledgement and a committment to keep at the top of our game, both from us, the Athletic Union recognising us as a focus sport- and most recently by Deloitte who join us as title sponsors. We are deeply endebted to them for their assistance.
Featuring hundreds of famous stores- every purchase makes us money and costs you nothing! Do it! (no, really...)
Or how about a Khanum Curry? Get 10% off your first order, and then have it delivered to your door! The best bit is, you will be helping us out at the same time!
2008 off to an outstanding start
The season has started with some outstanding results- see the news page! With few heads left we are looking to the Summer season and need your help making it even better than it has been before.
Update: Birmingham Win S4 & Nv(A) Pennants at Women's Head of the River Race!
At Our strongest ever...and still improving!
Last year saw us rise through the university ranks to attain 10th best in the country after BUSA regatta. Following BUSA small boats head and BUSA Championship Head we stepped up yet again and ranked as number 2 in the country.
NOW: Following the BUSA regatta 2007 we are proud to have attained the rank of 3rd in the UK both at the regatta and for the 2006-2007 season.
Club Sponsorship
We are actively seeking a second tier sponsor to partner our title Focus Sport Sponsor, Deloitte. Are you interested in associating with one of the fastest growing rowing clubs in the UK based at a Redbrick University? Would your company enjoy the corporate image of young, powerful, highly motivated individuals shaping their futures? These benefits are just the tip of the iceburg...
Sponsor a blade
We have launched a new scheme for sponsorship, to sponsor a blade with the chance of winning the sponsorship of a whole new boat, being able to name it and add your logo/designs to it!
Join us!
We need both experienced rowers and people who have never rowed before- come and see what we can offer you.
Recruitment happens in September, but we are prepared to look at experienced athletes all year round. Unfortunately we can only take on new rowers at the start of the academic year.
Be the Boss
If you've got what it takes to fill eight tired athletes with a burning passion to win, whilst steering a 60ft boat with a rudder the size of a credit card, then UBBC needs you!
