Rowing enjoys a reputation for graceful strength and the supreme physical fitness of those who participate in the sport. Olympic events, Henley Royal Regatta and the University Boat race are firmly embedded in our national sporting consciousness but, at the other end of the scale, rowing is an activity enjoyed by men and women of all ages and from all walks of life. Those who have discovered the sheer joy of the sport at whatever age or level of competence come together with the specific aim of rowing to the very best of their abilities. Whether competitive or purely for the fun of it, Llandaff rowing club and rowing in general continues to grow in popularity.

Water and land based training at all levels is ongoing throughout the year, rain or shine, though we do most strongly advise sticking to land training whenever the Taff ducks are seen legging it full-tilt for the shelter of the Boathouse.

Coaching and equipment is available free of charge to Club Members. Should individuals or groups require specific training programmes, coaching can be arranged via the Club Captain. A comprehensive facility, opened by Rhodri Morgan MP, includes a Weights Room containing an excellent range of Multi-gym equipment and weights.

The room provides complete training facilities for the dedicated sportsman or sportswoman, fitness enthusiast or those just wishing to keep in trim.

An adjacent room houses four Concept II rowing ergometers, which complement the weights equipment. In addition, a separate gymnasium is available for circuit training, aerobic classes or similar functions. This space is also available for hire. Changing rooms with hot showers are available on site.

The Llandaff landing stage situated behind the Clubhouse is available for use, by associated members to boat their canoes or any other craft. If you are training for other sports (i.e. runner, cyclist or canoeist etc.) and would like to shower and change afterwards, the changing rooms and showers are spacious and have plenty of hot water. The club bar, situated upstairs of the Clubhouse, is available for socialising during opening hours.
