Cambridge University Boat Club (CUBC)
Cambridge challenged Oxford to the first race in 1829. The Boat Races are one of the biggest free sports events and over the years have captured worldwide interest.
CUBC welcomes every Cambridge student who is interested in trialing, no matter their rowing background. The club runs men’s and women’s squads and puts out open weight and lightweight crews to race Oxford in the Boat Races. In recent years some of our most competitive athletes started rowing whilst at Cambridge. This is possible because of the top-level facilities, coaching, and, most importantly, a competitive and supportive environment that pushes every athlete to reach their highest potential.

There are two ways you can support CUBC’s rowing programmes and its crews:

Regular gifts to the Living Endowment will support the current rowing programmes for the Heavyweight and Lightweight, Women and Men's crews seeking to win this year’s Boat Races.

The CUBC Rowing Charitable Fund
Gifts to this Fund will build a capital-protected endowment fund with the aim of generating an income, which, together with income from the Living Endowment, will help secure the future of high-performance rowing at Cambridge and the Boat Races themselves.
