Bishops (Diocesian) Rowing School
It is difficult to describe the sport of...

What seems to be simply pulling an oar through water is in reality a far more complex interaction of so many things: technique, strength, stamina, teamwork and, most importantly, mental toughness. It is vitally important to understand that the sport places high demands on the boys in terms of their time and commitment as well as their physical and mental ability. Rowing is TOUGH!!.
