Hear firsthand from a collection of our students about their time rowing at JCBC!
Steve Fairbairn, M1
"I'm is arguably one of the most influential characters in the history of Jesus College Boat Club and Cambridge rowing. As an oarsman, I was one of the celebrated cohort of Jesus rowers towards the end of its golden era of 1875-1886 during which they maintained the Mays Headship for no fewer than 11 consecutive years and, in 1885, won the Grand at Henley.... Mileage makes champions."

"I learnt to row at Jesus having never seen an 8 before - now I can hold the oar from the correct end!"
