Are you looking to start rowing, canoeing or kayaking?

Falcon is one of the oldest rowing clubs in Oxford. Since its foundation in 1869, the Club has provided a place for locals to come together, make friendships, learn new skills and keep fit.  Nowadays we offer rowing, canoeing and kayaking to the residents of Oxford and beyond. We continue to be a thriving club with strong links to our local community. We aim to provide a safe and friendly environment for people to learn new boating skills, to train and compete or to just unwind and relax on the water. Our membership is open to all and the new Falcon boathouse is a focal point for people of all ages and backgrounds to come together and enjoy the river.

You’ll find us just upstream of Donnington Bridge in East Oxford (postcode for satnav is OX4 4BJ; see how to find us), where most Saturday and Sunday mornings, or weekday evenings in summer, you will find someone to chat to about rowing, kayaking or open canoeing.

Our New Clubhouse

Throughout Falcon’s history the Club never had its own clubhouse. As part of our 150th anniversary in 2019 we set a goal to have plans and funding in place to finally be able to build one, giving us somewhere to train, socialise off water and support our wider community activities.

After some incredible work by a group of members, donations from large numbers of club users, funding bodies and very generous individuals, construction was able to begin in September 2020. Significantly more donations were made once we started building enabling us to complete the new building in March 2023. The trustees and whole club wish to continue to express our gratitude to everyone that made the seemingly impossible possible, resulting in such a fabulous facility for our on and off-water activities.

The official opening was in September 2022 (photos)
