Thames is an ARA High Performance Centre for women’s rowing with six Thames members currently in the British squad. The High Performance Programme is open to those who aspire to join the Great Britain squad and who meet the required performance standards.

For women not yet quite at HPP standard, but interested in going to GB squad trials, we can offer additional sculling coaching for those who meet a minimum ergo requirement of 7:20, or 7:35 for lightweights.

Once accepted into the HP group, members are eligible for reduced membership fees and subsidised rack rent for a single scull. Further financial support may also be available through the Thames Rowing Club Charitable Trust.
