Churchill College Boat Club was founded in 1961, soon after the college itself. Since then the club has gone from strength to strength, with our first boats generally being found in the middle of the first divisions of both May and Lent Bumps. Membership is open to all members of Churchill College, and contrary to popular belief it does not involve getting up at 5 o'clock every morning! The club caters for everyone, whether they want to row once a week or once a day, and all crews are encouraged to enter the many rowing events that take place on the Cam throughout the year. The club tries to emphasise the social aspect of rowing as much as the physical side, and formal swaps with other colleges are a regular occurrence. At the end of every term there is the legendary Boat Club Dinner, a huge formal hall in college where everyone can celebrate the term's achievements in the traditional way - by the responsible consumption of alcohol. Our website tells you all about rowing at Churchill College and includes results, race reports, photos, and a section on how get involved and start rowing yourself! We also have a Youtube channel full of videos of our crews in action.

A rather delayed news report, but at least it got here in the end! Right at the end of May Week there is an intermittent CCBC tradition of going rowing very early in the morning, partly to "celebrate" the summer solstice, but mostly to let us all have a final row before going home for the summer. It's also an opportunity to try all those random things you can never do normally, like rowing on the wrong side, coxing (for rowers) and rowing (for coxes). This year over two boats' worth of people were persuaded to give up their sleep for a bit of fun on the Cam. We took out Jim and Sir Winston (which was bow-rigged, and confused the hell out of everyone), and did a couple of Reaches of very unusual rowing - before returning home and going back to bed. |
