Yarra Yarra Rowing Club welcomes new members. If you're interested in rowing, coaching or becoming a coxswain – get in touch.
For those who have never rowed before, we run Learn to Row sessions to get you started with some basic skills, before you decide if you want to become a member. If you have rowed before, but it's been a while, we'd love to help you get back into a boat. Whether it's only been a season or two since you last rowed or sculled, or a lot longer, and you think you need to start off slowly, we can help find the right fit for you to gain confidence and enjoyment out on the water again.
