Priorities Women's Rowing
The University of Miami has a proud legacy as a rowing powerhouse, and we are committed to providing our female student-athletes with the opportunity to compete at the highest level.
Royal Henley Regatta - Summer 2026
Many of our student-athletes have never had the chance to travel outside of the United States, as the demanding balance of athletics and academics often prevents them from participating in traditional study abroad programs. A transformative international travel experience supported by donors allows for student-athletes to grow by enhancing their level of competition while also giving them unparalleled and memorable experiences outside of the classroom.
We are thrilled to announce our goal to take the team overseas to the prestigious Royal Henley Regatta in Summer 2026. This will be a historic debut for The U at this world-renowned event, which draws the world's best teams. Competing at Henley will provide our student-athletes and alumni with an unforgettable experience and further solidify our reputation as one of the world's premier rowing institutions.
