A rowing club on the banks of the Waikato River at Mercer, according to the club's own website. The directory gives the address as Roys Road in Weymouth, Manukau, so the location needs checking. The club says it has well-equipped facilities and a long stretch of water to row.
The club caters for club, school and novice rowers, and has recently added masters rowing. School rowing is a large part of the club, with rowers from Rosehill College, ACG Strathallan, Pukekohe High School and Te Kauwhata College. Membership fees are described as reasonable and include camps, meals and lodge accommodation across the season.
The website says most training happens after school and at weekends, not early mornings, and that the season starts with daylight saving in late September. Winter training runs from May to September, with weekend sessions at the clubrooms and mid-week fitness sessions at affiliated school gyms. Phone 07 823 4587 or email info@rowingnz.kiwi.
