City of Warrnambool Rowing Club

Overview

The City of Warrnambool Rowing Club rows from its sheds located at Simpson Street, alongside the Proudfoots complex, on the Hopkins River.

Established in 1873, the (City of) Warrnambool Rowing Club is one of the oldest clubs of any type in Victoria, and retains a strong affiliation with Rowing Victoria (est. 1876).

We have approximately 50 members varying in experience, background and age. We welcome anyone who has an interest in getting out on the water for recreation or competition.
