Matthew's weekly tips

Coxless Four in Athens 2004


2008 Sir Matthew Pinsent Corporate Regatta

Gather your colleagues, invite your clients, and compete in one of Great Britain's most successful Olympic sports just weeks before the start of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

You need a team (crew) of five with no previous competitive rowing experience to have four 90 minute training sessions in coxed fours in June.

Then on 6th July you will pit your wits against your competitors in the Regatta hosted by Sir Matthew at Dorney Lake, the 2012 venue for rowing.

To enter costs £3,500 + VAT for a crew (£700) per person). 10% of all entry fees will be donated to SPARKS. Competitors are encouraged to raise further funds through appropriate sponsorship schemes.

The winner will receive a £5,000 cheque for their chosen charity.

"The best corporate event I have been involved in. The chance to work closely with colleagues in a non-work environment was a real joy and we forged stronger working relationships as a result". Xchanging

"What a great event. Challenging but very enjoyable and the regatta was a great finish to 4 weeks of hard work. Rowing is addictive!" Accenture

"Four training sessions then the regatta allowed me to work closely with colleagues that I would not necessarily work everyday. Everyone was looking forward to our training sessions each week and the regatta resulted in friendly competitiveness" JO Hambro
