Learn to Row
Academicals run “Learn to Row” courses in spring and summer each year. The courses are designed to give people who have never rowed before, or those with little rowing experience, an opportunity to learn. Click here for our 2018 course information!

Don't snooze, or you'll lose!
Always great music and atmosphere at the @isisfarmhouse. On your way there, what about stopping by the @OxAcademicalsRC and sign up for our April or May rowing course! Hurry up though only a few spaces left!
The Club enables members to row at various commitment levels. Academicals crews enter national events, such as Head of the River and the Henley Regattas, and compete at local regattas, such as City of Oxford, Kingston, and Maidenhead.
Our home is the Isis Boathouse, situated just upstream of Iffley Lock.
Oxford Academicals RC is open to all but rowing with us requires:
- over 18 years of age
