Talks and Seminars

Woodvale Challenge will be running a series of monthly seminars to try to help both teams signed up to the races, those considering rowing independently as well as those who are just in the early stages of thinking about rowing an ocean and want to find out more.

The seminars will be hosted by a number of different ocean rowers who are keen to share their experiences about how to, (and in some cases how not to!) put a campaign together. It is our aim to hold the talks at different locations around the country so as to make it as easy as possible for everyone to come along.

Seminars are free of charge so please come armed with friends, family and lots of questions. They are your chance to quiz the people in the know in ocean rowing so take advantage and draw on the experience of the people who have been there and done it.

Schedule of Seminars:

All Seminars will start at 2pm unless otherwise stated, locations will be confirmed a minimum of 2 weeks before and displayed on this website.
