Radley Mariners Boat Club (RMBC) is a rowing club authorised under GB Rowing rules. It promotes rowing for OR oarsmen and, from time to time, has crews at events including Henley.

With three medallists at Tokyo 2020, we are particularly proud that the overwhelming majority of OR Olympians have been Radley oarsmen in their youth. RMBC also helps arrange hospitality at regattas and head races for parents including an annual lunch at the National Schools Regatta, a drinks party at Henley, and a pub gathering on the Chiswick embankment to watch the Schools Head.

Associated with RMBC, the Radley Mariners Charitable Trust (RMCT) raises money to:

• Help RCBC purchase certain equipment not provided by the College.
• Support parents with the cost of training camps and international rowing.
• Support non-Radley youth rowing in the Thames Valley region.

Radleians who have rowed at the College are offered membership of RMBC upon leaving and there are other members who have been associated with RCBC such as past and present coaches. They are entitled to wear the Mariners’ tie. Parents and other supporters who contribute to the RMCT will also be invited to become Associate Members and receive invitations to events.

To join the Mariners please download this form and return it to Charles Behrens (details are included in the form).
