Our Club

Lymington Amateur Rowing Club was established in 1881. Our clubhouse can be found on the corner of Quay Road in Lymington. The club has and always will promote the fun & social side of the sport as well as the serious aspect of competitive rowing.

If you would like to try rowing for a bit of fun or if you are an established rower wishing to train hard please get in touch, join up now or come along to the club house, we are looking forward to seeing you.

    January update 2012

    • Redrow have just been granted planning permission for the former Webs site on Bridge road.  This is good news for the Rowing Club as their plan includes a low level pontoon and space for the rowing club.  There is still much work to do on many of the details, but it is a huge step towards a new club.
    • We are looking for volunteers to form a new Fundraising committee, headed up by Rupert Baddeley.  Let me know if you are interested.
    • Membership fees are now due (Forms attached).  Please try to pay by the end of January
    • Circuit training is going well at Priestlands Gym on Wednesdays at 6:pm (£3 adults & £2 Students & Juniors)
    • Monday night running is also available and free.  We leave the club at 6:30pm.  2, 3 4 & 6 mile routes are available.

    December Update 2011

    I hope you all had a good Christmas.  The Club Party at Lanes was a great success.

    New clubhouse

    As you may know, LARC are currently included on Redrow's plans for the old Webbs site.  The plan will include a clubhouse & boat store, with a low level pontoon, just above the railway bridge.  The plan also includes 168 homes, but this is considerably fewer than the 300 odd homes they already have permission for.
     
    This plan has been submitted to the NFDC for consideration, but the Town Council are not supporting it.  To improve the chances of it going through, could you support the application on the NFDC website.  There are currently 19 against & 10 in favour.  If we can get the in favours up, that should help.  You don't need me to tell you that the current rowing club site is falling apart and we desperately need a new building.
     
    If you would like to support the Redrow Application please
     
     
     

    Circuit Training starts on Wednesday 4th January at 6:30pm, Priestlands School Gym (Not the recreation centre).  It will cost £2.50 for adults and £1.50 for Juniors & Students.
    Sessions will last about 1 hour, all members (and non members) are welcome.
     
    Membership & racking fees are due in January.  Forms are on the website (lymingtonrowingclub.co.uk) and attached to this e-mail

    Circuit Training 4th January 6:30pm

    The new year is approaching us fast and that can mean only one thing, yes Circuits are starting again.  The first one will be on Wednesday 4th January 6:30pm start.

    It is a great way to start off the new year, whether that is losing a bit of weight, getting a bit fitter or part of a more comprehensive training programme. 

    All are welcome from juniors to veterans, friends, partners and family.  

    For those of you who have not been before, it is important try and make the first one as this will make things much easier for weeks to follow.

    We hope to see you there.
