UPRC was founded in 2000 in accordance with Plymouth amateur rowing club. Each year the the club has grown, gaining an increased university stature, two years ago being nominated for club of the year at the university sports awards.
Last year we had are biggest intake of students and some of the clubs best results, the senior mens 4+ winning both the bristol head race and exeter head race and the mens 8+ winning the bristol aerial race. There was also a strong showing for the women’s crews, with the fresher 4+ coming third at the BUCS head race in peterborough gaining an automatic qualification for the BUCS regatta semi finals in Nottingham.
UPRC aim to provide an enjoyable team atmosphere for both those joining to keep fit and those experienced rowers with regular training sessions, races and of course socials.
