Shenton College
The UWA Boat Club is excited to run the Shenton College rowing program in 2021/22. Shenton won the overall title at the Rowing WA All Schools Championships for four years in a row, from 2015 to 2018.
UWABC has a long association with Shenton College (going back to 2003) and the rowing program in its current form has been running for the past 6 years.

Learn To Row
6 week courses are held regularly throughout the year to introduce as many people to our incredible sport as possible. If you rowed in the distant past and want a refresher then this course is also perfect for you!
Upon completion of your first course, UWABC will take every endeavour to run a intermediate course for those interested in continuing to develop their rowing stroke and potentially train in our competitive squads.
