Regent's Park College Boat Club is the boat club of Regent's Park College, Oxford, a Permanent Private Hall of the University of Oxford. It is based in New College Boat House which it shares with New College Boat Club.

The Club was established shortly after Regent's Park became a Permanent Private Hall of the University in 1957 and currently owns two boats, one named "Regent's Shark", in which the men's team row, and a more-lightweight women's eight named 'Bond Girls.' The club competes in a number of inter-collegiate races in both the male and the female categories.

History

The Boat Club has competed in most Torpids and Eights competitions throughout its history and occasionally puts out a boat for the Christ Church Regatta. In 2014, the women's novice boat that entered the Christ Church Regatta proceeded to win the overall competition - among the biggest achievements for any Regent's Park sports team in history. Both the men's and women's boat have won blades on a number of occasions[1] and in 1979 the Boat Club undertook a charity row from Oxford back to the College's origins in Regent's Park, London, which was filmed by the BBC for a special documentary.[2]

In 2005, a joint Regent's Park-LMH women's crew took part in the Oxford-Cambridge Channel Challenge, setting a new record for a women's crew rowing across the English Channel.

Between 2005-2010, the Men's VIII established a record of thirty-four consecutive starts in a bumps race without being bumped once itself.

Double blades (blades in Torpids and Eights in the same year) have been achieved three times in Boat Club history - by the men's crews of 1979 and 2006, and the women's crew of 2015.

Torpids 2018 coincided with the "Beast from the East" (officially Anticyclone Hartmut, a cold wave in February 2018), and so while full racing took place on the first day of the regatta, racing for lower divisions was called off for the remaining three days.[3] The Regent's Park Men's 1st boat bumped on the first and only day of lower division racing, meaning they bumped on every day of racing, and were technically eligible for blades, although these were not claimed by the crew or recognised by the college.[4]

Governance

The Club is governed by a committee of students, who are all elected in Trinity term. The Executive Committee consists of a President, Treasurer, Social Secretary, and the Men's and Women's Captains. There are also two non-Executive officers - the Sponsorship Secretary and the Alumni Representative, who are both elected in Michaelmas term. The Senior Member of the Club is Mark Atherton, Tutor in English at the College.

Most of the Club's funding comes from the JCR and from its sponsor, BlackRock.

Traditions

Members of the Club who have rowed in at least one university race (and, usually, who have won trophy blades in that race) are entitled to wear the Boat Club blazer, especially at the College's annual Final Fling ball. Club members who have competed in at least one race (but not won trophy blades) are entitled to wear the Boat Club tie.
