Bradford Amateur Rowing Club was founded in 1867 and the two storey clubhouse built in 1893 still retains much of its Victorian character. This is particularly evident in the unique upstairs bar and function room where access to the balcony provides magnificent views of the river and the local conservation area.
Downstairs training facilities are provided in the fitness room where members can circuit train or weight train safely using gym quality weight resistance machines, in addition eight Concept II Ergometers provide dry rowing fitness and technique development. A large separate boathouse holds the Club's extensive fleet of modern racing boats together with beginners equipment and racking for private craft.
As a registered Community Amateur Sports Club new members from diverse backgrounds are welcomed, including those new to the sport of rowing.
There is a large and active Junior section, and the Club has been awarded Sport England’s Clubmark accreditation for being child friendly, effective and well-managed.
