New Starts News


New Starts news is now updated on the CSRC Forum. Check the New Starts Board for up to date information.


New Starts – if you’ve just started rowing, want to start rowing, been rowing less than a year or only pop down for a paddle when the sun comes out and the water’s flat (2 or 3 times a year) then this is the page for you.

New Starts sessions are supported by coaches who will take you through the basics, working with you at your own pace until you’re ready to join a crew or paddle alone. CSRC members currently coaching New Starts sessions are William Holmes, Caroline Parker and Claire Hiddlestone.
Unless otherwise indicated on this page New Starts training sessions are held every:
Saturday 10-12am
Tues 6.30-8.00pm

Sessions may be moved/cancelled due to regattas, coach availability etc so it’s worth checking out this page before coming down. If you email your mobile phone number we can let you know about late changes to plans caused by weather and may eventually get clever enough to send the training updates directly from this page.

Here's a picture from Nithsdale of the New Starts Quad.

If you haven’t already picked one up from the clubhouse the Welcome Booklet contains lots of useful information for those new to sculling and background on the club itself. (This links to a pdf of the printable copy)
