DUBC took on Runswick Bay on Thursday for a day filled with fun. After a seal-spotting walk and some heated games of tug of war, DUBC finished off the team building activities with a cliffside run before cooling off in the sea. Looking forward to the season ahead.⭐️💜

🟣Senior World Rowing Championships 2026🟣

What a week at the Senior World Rowing Championships! It saw current student-athletes bringing home hardware to alumni excelling globally. Here is a breakdown of the results:

- A huge congratulations to current student Jonty Ridley on claiming a brilliant Silver medal in the PR3 Mixed Coxed Four for Great Britain! 🇬🇧🥈🔥

- Alumna Lauren Irwin claimed not only a Silver but set a British best time in the Women’s Eight for Great Britain 🇬🇧🥈.

- Alumnus George Bourne battled hard to secure Bronze in the Men’s Coxless Four for Great Britain 🇬🇧🥉.

- Alumnus Fredrik Reite represented Norway 🇳🇴 in the Men’s Double Sculls coming 4th in the D Final.

Seeing DUBC talent past and present battle it out with the world’s best is all the inspiration we need heading into the new season. The standard is set.

With pre-season now officially underway, preparations begin for the 2026/27 campaign. Let’s get after it. 💜
