As one of the fastest 2nd VIIIs the crew is taken very seriously and will have 5/6 outings a week on the Isis on weekday afternoons and at the weekends.  Last year they were coached by Ollie Lough (OULRC) and were unlucky not to move up any places. Training would start in 0th week with training camp from Monday-Thursday (1-2 outings a day) until VIIIs week.

Tom Burkin UCBC Men’s Vice Captain Wed, 30 Jan 2008 13:32:40 +0000 Were looking to recruit a coach for Trinity term in preparation for Summer Eights. The college has had significant success in recent years; at last years Summer Eights the W1 won blades and the M1 bumped on three of four days, we are hoping to continue this trend this year.We are looking for a coach who is willing to do approximately four outings for each crew per week, and pay will be discussed upon request. The coach would then be expected to do eight outings a week. We do not expect applicants to be experienced coaches; though we will assess applicants based on overall experience within rowing.Please contact me with any queries, Rowing at Regents Park is an integral part of the college life, and though the size is small the desire to achieve is there and the desire to really commit to training is there.Thank you for your interest,Patrick Tiney, Mens Captain.
