CORC Junior Squad benefits from national funding scheme
City of Oxford RC was recently awarded a substantial grant by Project Oarsome, a flagship project of the ARA's National Junior Rowing Programme designed to attract schoolchildren into rowing. This has been used to establish formal links between CORC and local schools, and to provide equipment suitable for junior rowers. Each school now has rowing ergometers installed for instruction and training on land and new equipment, including 2 quads sculls, 2 double sculls, 4 single sculls,16 pairs of blades and a trailer, has been installed at the City Boathouse specifically for use by Juniors. The new boats were named after local participating schools during a ceremony held at the City Boathouse on 12th July 2000.
