Bayside Rowing Club is located in the portlands on the waterfront in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Our club serves the youth in our community: the neighbourhoods of Central and East End Toronto. We offer rowing programmes for everyone from novice through experienced and competitive rowers with a particular emphasis on providing opportunities to youth to enjoy the benefits of sport.

We want to ensure the future welfare of our community by encouraging individual achievement.
Bayside R.C. provides the opportunity to train and compete regardless of ability to pay. The only entry criterion of our club is commitment.

As a community oriented organization, the Bayside Rowing Club has sought to establish rowing programs that serve the needs of underprivileged young people. The programs target young people who, because of socio-economic disadvantages, would not otherwise have access to this sort of life experience.

The decision to develop such initiatives was based upon several factors:
1) the Club's commitment to programs which are broad-based and accessible
2) the experience of the Club's leadership in working with young people
3) the lack of similar programming in the city of Toronto

In order to ensure the optimal personal benefit of the training programme and competition, each of our athletes commits to a Code of Conduct. In the Code of Conduct, Bayside R.C. specifies the expectations we place on our athletes in terms of lifestyle choices and dedication. We also outline our commitment to their well-being and development.

The Bayside Rowing Club, through rowing, is making a difference in the lives of young people. It has achieved national recognition and is a model of what can be done for young people at-risk.

We invite you to join us in this important effort.
