The University of Leeds Boat Club (UOLBC) is the rowing club for students at the University of Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. The club races in green, burgundy and white colours representing those of the University of Leeds.
The club was founded in 1919. Having occupied a variety of buildings throughout the area, the current water base is located in Leeds following the completion of a new boat house which opened in September 2014 next to Thwaite Mills in Stourton. Land training takes place in Leeds University's sport complex on the main campus in Leeds.
The club owns and maintains a variety of different rowing and sculling boats of different classes.
The club competes at local and national events[1] and has had a number of notable achievements[2] from competing at BUCS, Head of The River and Henley Royal Regatta – reaching the second round of the Temple Challenge Cup in 2004 and 2007.
