Upper Thames Rowing Club is an English rowing club. It has a large clubhouse at Remenham in Berkshire , on the River Thames near the town of Henley-on-Thames and is set back by its lawn frontage from the first half of the course of Henley Royal Regatta . The club was established in 1963. [2]

History [ edit ]

In 1964 the club entered its first crew for Henley Royal Regatta in the Thames Cup. The crew was composed of:

  • Kevin O' Sullivan at bow (Eton Excelsior)
  • Alan Smiter (also Eton Excelsior and the Club's first captain)
  • Bill Rawson (Reading R.C.)
  • Charles Hawtrey (a First and Third man from Cambridge)
  • John Wingfield (Jesus College, Cambridge)
  • David Neal (Henley R.C.)
  • Hugh Cochrane (Reading R.C.)
  • David Mayers stroke (Shrewsbury and Clare College, Cambridge)
  • J Hooper (Marlow R.C.) as cox

One of the earliest crews to enter for the World Veteran Rowing Championships (the World Masters Regatta) was a coxless four from Upper Thames comprising Peter Sutherland, Sid Rand, Derek Thurgood and Glynne Davies in the early 1970s.

A number of renowned oarsmen have passed through the club membership, including many World and Olympic medalists. In 2014 two crews won the club's first trophies at Henley. They were:

The Wyfold Challenge Cup

  • Ed Couldwell
  • Michael Nagi
  • Joe Perry
  • Lewis Beech

The Britannia Challenge Cup

  • Luke Wootton
  • Graham Hall
  • Sam Barnes
  • Jake Davidson
  • Scott Smith (cox).
