Wycliffe College Boat Club is the school rowing club of Wycliffe College. It rows on the Gloucester and Sharpness Canal from Wycliffe College Boathouse at Junction Bridge, Saul, a facility also used by the University of the West of England Boat Club.
The programme races across school, national and Henley competition. A 2020-21 college report recorded boys' and girls' crews at the National Schools' Regatta and three Wycliffe boats qualifying for Henley Royal Regatta.
The club's leading junior women's quadruple scull completed an unbeaten season with victories at the Schools' Head, National Schools' Regatta, Henley Women's Regatta and Henley Royal Regatta. Its Diamond Jubilee Challenge Cup win at Henley was the school's first in that event.
The second women's quad won its National Schools' event and became the first Wycliffe B crew to reach a Diamond Jubilee semi-final at Henley. Lily Anderson also won Junior Singles at Henley Women's Regatta, while Natasha Phillips competed for Great Britain at the European Beach Sprint Rowing Championships.
A Wycliffian society report says Wycliffe rowers also won two World Championship silver medals during the same season. The college's rowing supporters have funded equipment purchases and organised head races to support the squad.
