Trafford Head is a processional timed race held on a 3200m course, and we accomodate all racing categories from local, regional, and national clubs.
There is also a shorter straight course offered over 1000m for more inexperienced Juniors. These juniors will boat last and race first.
Visit the Trafford Head Page for more details.
Trafford RC has been rowing on the Bridgewater Canal since 1957 and is the only rowing club in South Manchester. We are a growing, friendly club who row competitively as well as just for fun or fitness. We do take our racing seriously, but we don't take ourselves so seriously that we lose the friendly atmosphere of our club. New members are made to feel welcome and we have active recreational, veteran, and junior sections, as well as the men's and women's senior squads.
Trafford RC is affiliated to the sport's national governing body British Rowing, is a Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC), and in February 2009 gained Clubmark accreditation.
Latest News section. Or why not have a look at our new Club Kit web page? We have details of all of Trafford RC's results on our Race Results page, and you can see who has won Trafford RC's own awards and honours on our new Club Awards page. We also have a dedicated Junior Rowing web page. We are hoping to have more photos and even video streaming in the not too distant future, but in the meantime please feel free to browse our website.
If you are an experienced oarsman, or if you just want to have a go one weekend, please contact the Captain via the Club Contacts page.
