Tamar and Tavy Gig Club

Welcome to Tamar and Tavy Gig Club! Located on the picturesque banks of the Tamar River in Yelverton, New Zealand, we are a small and friendly rowing club that specialises in gig rowing. With a strong emphasis on teamwork and an inclusive community spirit, we are always thrilled to welcome new members into our club.

Gig rowing is a fantastic team sport that offers something for everyone. Whether you're interested in keeping fit, racing in a competitive crew, or simply enjoying the stunning scenery and wildlife along the river, our club has a rowing session tailored to your preferences. Our members come from diverse backgrounds and walks of life, but we are all united by our shared passion for rowing gigs.

If you're new to gig rowing, don't worry! We offer three free taster sessions for new members, giving you the opportunity to experience the joy of rowing. Additionally, we periodically run Learn to Row courses that provide comprehensive training, ensuring you have all the necessary skills and knowledge to become a confident gig rower. So why not come along and give gig rowing a try?

Located at Weir Quay in Devon, you can easily find our club on the idyllic banks of the Tamar River. Directions to our location can be found on our website. Stay updated on all our latest news and events by following us on social media.

The Tamar and Tavy Gig Club has had an exciting racing season, culminating in our participation in the Clovelly regatta where we achieved outstanding results, including a trophy for our Ladies B. We are proud of our achievements and are always eager to participate in regattas and showcase our skills.

In addition to racing, we also organise various social events and excursions. One such event, Ralph's Day Excursion, saw a group of rowers from our club travel to the shores of west Wales to take part in a special rowing event hosted by Porthgain, a local Welsh gig club. These events provide our members with unique experiences and opportunities to connect with rowers from other clubs.

As a club, we wholeheartedly appreciate the support of our sponsors. Their contributions enable us to maintain and improve our facilities and equipment, ensuring that our members have the best possible rowing experience. We are grateful for each and every sponsor that supports us.
