Banks Rowing Club

Over the past 8 weeks we have welcomed new junior rowers into our club!🩷💙

It has been a successful 8 weeks, the small but mighty winter squad have been able to train in a range of different boats, from doubles to eights.

We have been able to see the improvement from each of the rowers, their skills and confidence has grown week by week, building them up for a strong start for the school rowing season.

We can’t wait to see the rowers absolutely smash their school seasons! 🚣‍♀️🩷💙

Meet Ella, Banks’ very own PR3 Australian Rower!
She’s been putting in the KMs over in Europe and we couldn’t be more proud 🩷💙

We are so proud of Ella for placing 3rd in the PR3Mix2x at World Cup III in Lucerne, it really shows all the hard work and effort that she’s put in. 💛💚

Congratulations Ella, from everyone at Banks!

- ARC 2026 -
Another year of competing at the Australian National Championships down at Lake Barrington! With a smaller squad than last year, our athletes battled some very tough conditions out on the course 🌊🌊 Their hard work throughout the season was on show as all our rowers put up a great fight against very challenging competition. Well done to all our Banks athletes on an amazing season! 🩷💙

A huge thanks to our HP coaches Glenn and Joe, as well as Ainsley, for their incredible support and expertise! And also thank you to all the volunteers who help make the regatta possible 🙏
