Memberships for 2023
Membership is annual and runs from 1 March each year. Training takes place year round with training programmes for both on the water in a gig and in the gym. You’ll find details in our members only area and via the members Facebook page.
The CPGA racing season runs from early March to early September. If you join us towards the end of the racing season, please bear in mind crew selection could have already taken place for the end of season championships so rowing opportunities will be limited to filling in existing crews.
As a member you’ll have access to our group Facebook – it’s a members only forum for club news, regatta invites, crew selection and more. You’ll only be accepted once you’re a member.
All gig club members are also associate members of Saltash Sailing Club (SSC) as we’re based with and use the sailing club facilities. Only members are eligible to row. During the summer season when daylight allows, we run limited open sessions and / or learn to row opportunities. The current year’s membership types are listed below; for existing members you'll see the increase to the SSC element as agreed at the AGM in December 2022.
Please note: there's a difference in the age banding for CPGA U18 rowing based on school year so you'll see the 1 September cut-off for U18s, whereas for SSC it's based on 1 March so for U25s you'll see this date.
