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
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).
