Senior Men’s 8 winning silver in the Men’s Inter 8 at BUCS Regatta 2021
The senior men’s squad is developing impressively year after year as the club grows and begins to establish itself amongst the best rowing universities in the country.
Our training programme, set by Head Coach Tobias Rudkin, includes a combination of erg, water and weights sessions, designed to create a competitive and successful squad. We will often train twice a day, six days a week, completing our land training at the nearby Surrey Sports Park and travelling to Molesey Boat Club for our water sessions on the River Thames. We also have our own Strength and Conditioning coach, who leads our weights sessions and creates an effective programme that gets the very best out of our athletes.
In the first part of the season, we begin our campaign with a series of races at Teddington Head, Wallingford Head and Kingston Head, as well as Hammersmith Head and Quintin Head on the Tideway in preparation for the Head of the River Race. In the second half, we transition to 2km side-by-side racing, beginning at BUCS Regatta, and then onto Metropolitan and Marlow regattas in the build up to Henley Royal Regatta.
Senior Men’s 4 winning Marlow Regatta 2021
Our squad achievements are building up year on year as it has developed into a competitive force on the rowing scene. We have competed at Henley Royal Regatta for the last eight years; earned wins at Met and Marlow regattas, medalled in several events at BUCS Regatta and won countless head races.

Many years ago (I graduated in 1968), I was a student at the University of Surrey, which was in London then. During my course, I rowed for the University eight and won some races. Now, at 82, I am still an active oarsman. I currently hold the Australian record for 1000m (in my age group) in Concept 2 ergo, and a few years ago I won the gold medal in the World Masters single scull event.
I would like to purchase a rowing costume (top or full) with Surrey colours. Please advise me if that is possible and, if so, what I need to do.
Kind regards
Alex Silber
I have rowed since I was 13 years old and have done university rowing before at Trinity College Dublin(DUBC). Over the years I have won a few reggattes in sculls, doubles, quads and eights. If you would allow me to co tinue my rowing journey at Surrey I would be very grateful.
