Butler Cup

Butler Cup is an annual tradition dating back to the 1930s that takes place before the UCD Christmas break, giving 1st year novices their first taste of competitive action.

Rowers are paired up and race each other in a knockout competition using the battleship 'tubs'.

Results, tactics and hard luck stories can be debated at length in Hartigans later that day...

The club is truly shocked and saddened with the passing of Jonathan Devitt.

Johnny made an enormous contribution to the club, not least as Captain in 2002 and 2003. He created foundations that the club still builds on today and it was fitting that he received a Centenary Medal in recognition of this in 2017.

We offer our most sincere condolences to his wife Caroline, his family, his crew mates and all who knew him.
