ANA Rowing Club

ANA Rowing Club The Club for everyone who wants to row. From beginner to international competitor ANA has the facilities for all. Come down and check us out.

ANA’s boatshed and clubrooms are located at the Hinds Reserve, Bayswater. It is just upstream of the Garrat Rd Bridge with access via Milne St. We share the Reserve with Perth College Rowing and with the WAIS kayaking program, plus the many locals who use the area for canoing, kayaking, swimming, fishing, walking, running, cycling, picnics and BBQs. The Hinds Reserve is a very busy but friendly place to be. ANA members can row upstream for at least 10km, past Guildford Grammar School, until the river becomes too narrow for easy navigation. This stretch of river is wide enough to row comfortably with several boats abreast, but narrow enough to provide shelter from winds and sun. Most of it is lined with native bushland and parks and we are usually surrounded by native birdlife (black swans, pelicans, cormorants, grebes, darters) and even the occasional dolphin. We can also row downstream all the way to Fremantle (25km), or onto the Canning River all the way down to the Shelley Bridge (20km), although we normally stick to the part upstream of the Graham Farmer Freeway, with just the odd trip into Perth City. This stretch is wider, and consequently rougher, with more power boats. However, it is still almost always rowable and provides good wide straight sections for our elite and sub-elite crews to practice racing pieces.

As we charge headlong into the RWA State Championships this weekend, let's take a moment to reflect on Pennants 4, held on Saturday 29 August.
A moderately windy forecast turned quite ugly and conditions got worse and worse. So bad in fact, that the regatta had to be abandoned at the half time break (see for yourself at https://www.youtube.com/live/mZYnNnFnDU8). Our crews battled valiantly but rowing on ANA water doesn't prepare you for what they faced. At least is wasn't raining!
ANA Rowing Club hosted the event and big thanks must be sent to everyone who pitched in, from on water duties to marshalling, bow numbers, commentary and preparing and serving a delicious spread of cakes, slices, coffee and a BBQ bonanza that once again had the punters raving. We were lucky enough to have several members donate eggs and sausages, plus some bread rolls from Woolworths Inglewood.
Thanks to everyone who donated raffle items and Sarah from Hampers with Love by Sarah who used them and some of her own to create 10 wonderful hampers to raffle off.

Congratulations to everyone who completed the Perth to Fremantle Head Race yesterday! Hilary and Warren won their respective singles categories (and Elissa placed third), and the Masters Mens Coxed Eight came first in their race. 🥇🥉

And well done to the Masters Womens Coxed Quad, who unfortunately couldn't finish their race as their boat wasn't up to the challenging conditions. 🌊

Here are some photos from the start (not pictured: the rough water and sideways swell around Freshwater Bay).
