Pembroke College Boat Club
Oxford

Welcome to PCBC, the largest student organisation of Pembroke College and one of the most successful college boat clubs in Oxford.

In the last 20 years PCBC has had more women’s and men’s boats in the top three positions on the river than any other college. We are also the first and only boat club to have held both the Men’s and the Women’s Summer VIIIs Head of the River simultaneously in 2003. We are a high-achieving club, with members rowing for University and National Squads, but are also all-inclusive, welcoming members of all rowing levels.

Every year we recruit as many students as we can and introduce them to rowing. We are proud to wear Pembroke Pink while representing our College and aim to add a strong scholar-athlete dynamic to our community.

PCBC Headship at Torpids and Summer VIIIs

We are extremely proud to sit at Head of the River in both women’s bumps competitions following W1’s two huge successes in 2025.

Join PCBC

We welcome new recruits of any ability, all year round!
