What Is the Shoreham Rowing Club Website?

Updated

shorehamrowingclub.co.uk is the official website of Shoreham Rowing Club, a rowing club based at Kingston Beach in Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex. The site is aimed at people who want to find out about the club, join as a beginner or experienced rower, follow its racing calendar and results, or visit the club in person. It covers both coastal rowing and river rowing on the River Adur.

What the club offers

The club describes itself as welcoming all levels, from complete beginners to experienced rowers, and frames its activity around training, racing and community rowing. Its location on the edge of Kingston Beach puts it on the water and within a short walk of Shoreham town centre, which the site presents as an advantage for both coastal and river rowing in West Sussex.

The site sets out the club's activity in four main areas:

  • About SRC — who the club is, what it stands for, and its history from coastal roots to its current racing focus.
  • Squads — the groups members row and train with, including a Learn to Row squad for newcomers.
  • Racing — an upcoming race calendar and results across all squads.
  • Joining — guidance on how to get started, whether you are new to the sport or already row.

The Learn to Row route for beginners

The site's clearest entry point for newcomers is the Learn to Row squad. According to the club, participants are introduced to the basics on land and on water, covering technique, terminology, safety and teamwork. The stated requirement is no prior experience — just enthusiasm and a willingness to try.

If you are considering a first session, the practical steps the site points to are:

  1. Read the "Row for us" / "How to Join" section to understand the entry route.
  2. Check the squads page to see which group matches your experience level.
  3. Use the club address to plan your visit for a taster session or first session.

The site does not publish a step-by-step sign-up form or a published fee schedule in the material available, so treat joining as a conversation with the club rather than a self-service online process.

Following races and results

For members, supporters and anyone scouting the club's competitive side, the site maintains two live sections: an upcoming races calendar showing where crews will compete this season, and a results page tracking performance across all squads through the season. These are the pages to check if you want to watch a race from the shore or track how the club is doing.

Where to find the club

The club's address, as listed on the site, is:

Shoreham Rowing Club, Kingston Beach, Brighton Road, Shoreham-by-Sea, West Sussex, BN43 6RN

The site notes this is a short walk from the town centre and directly on the water, and provides a map link for directions.

Is this the site you want?

Use shorehamrowingclub.co.uk if you are looking to row on the Sussex coast or the River Adur, want a beginner-friendly route into the sport, or want to follow the club's races and results. If you are researching rowing clubs more broadly or comparing options across the region, this site covers one club in depth rather than acting as a directory — you would need other clubs' sites for a comparison.
