The Crew Cut

On 21 February, The Muscat Marathon will take place with thousands of competitors from over 56 countries taking on the 42.2km route through Oman’s premier lifestyle destination.

On Saturday November 23rd, 480 crews will take to the water in an annual processional race on the tideway. With staggered starts the coxed fours, coxless fours and quadruple sculls are timed along the 4 1⁄4-mile (6.8 km) Championship Course from Mortlake to Putney in a race that attracts both senior and junior crews from clubs, universities and schools.

Next week, over 1,500 rowers will travel from all over the UK and from across the world to compete in the prestigious Henley Women’s Regatta. And, this year, we’re proud to announce that HWR has teamed up Crewroom to supply the official merchandise range.

This month we chat to the brains behind Crewroom – Kate Giles. As a former elite rower at Thames Rowing Club, it’s unsurprising that the tideway has played a huge part in Kate’s life and is the catalyst that launched Crewroom back in 2001… How did you discover rowing?

When we heard about the Heineken Roeivierkamp, otherwise known simply as 'The Heineken', we thought it rude not to attend such an enticing regatta! This yearly event races over four distances on Amsterdam's Amstel river (Amstel, again, what's not to love), and last weekend saw the 47th edition take place.

Attending Henley Women’s Regatta wouldn’t be complete without a trip to the Crewroom stand in the retail village. Crewroom has been supporting British Women’s Rowing since 2001 and this event is one we truly get excited about.
