Sheffield University Rowing Club Fleet Expansion

Aim: To buy three boats for our club to raise the quality and quantity of equipment we offer. It will also provide better boats for our women

To buy three boats for our club to raise the quality and quantity of equipment we offer. It will also provide better boats for our women. 

We are a student run and funded club, who provide all of the equipment for our members. Rowing is a very expensive sport, with new boats costing in excess of £40,000 at the top end. We need a little extra cash to top up our existing funds to buy 3 quality second-hand boats that would greatly improve and expand our fleet. 

An 8+ that would replace one from 1987. A 4+ to be used by both the men and the women, to replace our one that is currently only suitable for men. A 4- that would expand our capability to cater to both sculling and sweep disciplines as our club continues to expand. 

£6,000 would make the purchases possible,  but anything above this amount would help massively towards updating the fittings in our other boats, shoes, slides etc.
