MURC will be holding periodic 4-week Learn to Row courses on 4 consecutive Saturdays. The sessions run from 6:30am - 8:00am, and anyone over the age of 13 can participate.

Social rowing sessions are held regularly during the course of the year from the Murdoch University Rowing Club boatshed.    There are two social rowing sessions held during the week.

The main session is held on Saturdays from 6:15am - 8:00am.    Other sessions held during the week include Tuesdays from 5:15pm - 6:30pm, and on Wednesdays from 6:00am - 7:15am.

Sessions usually involve rowing on the Canning River in fours, quads, and eights.    Slight variations in the starting time may occur.

If you are a university student whether it be Murdoch University, or from any of the other tertiary institutions, and you are looking for an activity to unwind from the rigors of study, why not give rowing a go.    It is a wonderful way to socialise with other individuals from other courses and backgrounds.    No matter what your level of experience with rowing, our club has various learn to row programs during the year.

If you are keen to row, drop us an email.
