The Progression Squad is for anyone! From beginners to experienced rowers who want to be on the water throughout the season.
Beginners can continue to learn the basics (you will need to attend a Learn to Row course before joining) and, if you want, begin to race locally on the Cam for example, we enter boats in the local Head races and the Winter League.
More experienced rowers can also keep developing their skills either working towards joining our Men's/Women's Squads, or to stay with the Progression Squad at a more competitive level either on or off Cam (for the latter, you would need British Rowing Membership) or to row more recreationally if preferred.
Our main focus as we go though the season is towards Town Bumps in July, in which we entered 6 boats in 2025 across all levels or rowing ability.
