time since 2006.

LCBC exists to provide rowing training and competition facilities for the students of Lincoln
College, a constituent college of the University of Oxford. A combination of Lincoln's steely
determination to improve and the efforts of recent Boat Club Committees has culminated in
huge, recent successes for the club, most recently three sets of blades at Torpids 2012,
including blades for both first boats. We have also made our presence felt outside of Oxford,
with crews racing at Fairbairns, Quintin Head and Women's Head Of The River in the
2011/2012 season alone.
Lincoln boat club is truly inclusive, taking rowers from novice to international level and
making sure that each and every rower receives top level coaching and support. Lincoln
boats this year contained rowers from all over the globe, spanning an age range of almost
twenty years.
The club also operates an excellent annual training camp abroad, this year to the Danube
River in Budapest. The week long trip gives rowers a great chance to compress a term's worth
of rowing into an intensive, but hugely fun, trip abroad.
LCBC also has a truly fantastic social side. Whether it's formal dinners and, wine and cheese
evenings, or post-outing drinks at 'Spoons, crew dates and general banter, there is something
for everyone socially at LCBC. Numerous social functions occur each term and much fun is
had by all. For more information about LCBC's social side, please contact the Social
Secretaries via the 'Committee' section on this site.
Whether you're a current rower, alumnus, or prospective student, you should find
everything about rowing at Lincoln on this site. If you have any further queries, please do
not hesistate to get in touch with any of the Committee members on the relevant section of
this site.
