Burton Leander Rowing Club is the premiere rowing club in Burton on Trent and celebrated its 150th Anniversary in 1997. The club has seen successes at national and international level, with wins at Henley, The National Championships and The National Schools Regatta. Members of the junior squad regularly attend GB trials, the most recent selection was Liam Rose who competed in the GB vs France Regatta in Abbevile sur la Somme, France.
We are fortunate to have approximately 6KM of rowable river, with an exciting regatta course, over 1100m from the Leicester Line Railway Bridge to a point just before the Ferry Bridge, and a straight sprint course over 450m. Burton Leander aims to enable its athletes to meet their aspirations through the provision of excellent training facilities both on and off the water, this includes Olympic weights facilities, Concept 2 rowing machines and quality coaching alongside a full fleet of racing boats
Burton Leander Rowing Club is a Community Amatuer Sports Club and a proud holder of the Sport England Club Mark. Burton Leander is dedicated to the promotion and development of rowing. The club is open to all and always welcomes new rowers, both experienced and those new to the sport as we have a team of A.R.A qualified coaches and a variety of training boats. We also have a number of university rowers who come back for the summer/winter/easter periods - we offer a special membership rate for those who wish to do so.
