Glebe Rowing Club Incorporated

Glebe Rowing Club Incorporated

Glebe is a very special club, with a long history of camaraderie, not to mention success on the water. Founded in 1879, Glebe is one of the oldest rowing clubs in Australia.


In the past we have lost our shed on a few occasions and our present shed is as a result of the overwhelming generosity of a few of our “Old Boy” members. Because of our history, the ups and downs associated with the finances of the club and the finances of many of the members during the Depression, we have an attitude of looking after each other and the Club itself. In fact, during the Depression it was not uncommon for some of the members to live at the Club, having been evicted from their homes and having nowhere else to live.


Although we are very active on the water and compete successfully, we acknowledge that not everyone has a competitive streak and to this end we also welcome members who would like to take their rowing a little less strenuously. What we do ask is that you consider your fellow members and the good of the Club as a whole in any and everything you do with regards to Club activities.


This fund will allow us to continue to provide all members with quality facilities and equipment so that everyone associated with Glebe Rowing Club can enjoy their experience.
