Welcome!

Wilmington Rowing Center is Delaware's home for rowers and scullers of all levels from passionate racers to recreational rowers to those completely new to the water. Together we enjoy a spacious boathouse located on Wilmington’s Riverfront with an easy-to-access dock on the Christina River. Our club comprises of dedicated members who support each other and the greater community.

Become a member of Wilmington Rowing Center and join our pursuit of the ultimate team and lifelong sport… rowing. We welcome everyone, both masters and novices. Our annual Learn to Row sessions teach you the basics of rowing. After completion, you can join our novice, recreational, and racing groups. Unlike many other sports, rowing can be learned at any age and fitness level. Rowing is a great way to get fit, have fun, make new friends and enjoy the beauty of the river against the backdrop of the bustling Wilmington Riverfront.
