The Club Minihead

Tees Rowing Club

The Tees RC Club ‘Minihead’ is an informal time trial run once a month over a 4k course – a shortened version of the Small Boats Head / Long Distance Sculls course .

It’s a bit of fun, but also timed, so you get to measure yourself against other crews.

And we have a great spreadsheet that not only shows the raw time but creates results based on ‘adjusted time’ to allow for crew age, sex and boat type. This way, an older single sculler or adaptive rower can fairly mix it with the Senior Men’s 8+ and those new to rowing using the L2R boats can see their representative time.

The race is generally followed by bacon sandwiches and hot drinks back at the Clubhouse.

How to enter

The event is run on a rota basis by different squads to ensure the workload is shared around the club and everyone gets to take part as much as possible.

As a Tees member you will receive an email inviting you to enter a crew in an upcoming Minihead.

If you’re reading this and you’re from another club and you fancy joining in the fun, send us an email we’d love to hear from you –Tees Captain
