Rowing

New students, whether you’ve rowed before or not, should try out rowing and join Hughes Hall Boat Club! At Hughes, almost half of the freshers give rowing a go. Whether you’re looking to keep fit, learn a new skill, or make new friends, HHBC has something for everyone! If you want to train seriously and aim for the first boat or prefer a more laid-back approach with the lower crews, we’ve got options for you. Socially, the club offers a welcoming community, forging lasting friendships through regular outings, races, and social events. Unique to Hughes Hall, our club accommodates many one-year degree students, ensuring a dynamic and supportive environment for novices.

Every year, we run taster days in the first few weeks of Michaelmas term to give everyone a chance to try out rowing and speak to current members. We also have a stall at the college Freshers’ Fair each year. For more information, please contact: boatclub@hughes.cam.ac.uk.
