Rowing Queensland (RQ) Fee

This is your insurance and extra to club membership/access to equipment.

RQ competitive fee is:

  • $147.50 for over 19 and
  • $75 for under 19

Please note Rowing Queensland has introduced mandatory credit card payment for RQ capitation fee. 

Terms

Membership is from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024

Rowers must renew their membership prior to rowing out of UQBC in 2024

Pro-rata memberships are not available for renewing members

New adult members joining UQBC for the first-time and part way through the season may still be offered a pro-rated rate but this is at the discretion of the Board.

Payment plans will be considered for members with genuine financial need, but full payment will ultimately be required.

Please contact our Treasurer treasurer@uqbc.org if you would like to apply for a payment plan.

New Members

If you have previously been a member of another Club, please contact (info@uqbc.org) so that a transfer request can be placed. Do not register for UQBC membership.

Prospective members may be required to undertake an on-water assessment to evaluate safety and competency. UQBC expects a high level of independence and sufficiency from all members. Applicants who do not satisfy the competency requirements are invited to apply for the UQBC Learn to Row and/or Intermediate Program.

Please note that you must be 15 years of age or older to apply for membership at UQBC.
