UCD Boat Club victorious at Colours
UCD redeemed what was shaping up to be a dismal weekend of sport. The weekend started on a high note as UCD novice 2nd VIII overcame a crab off the start, a dodgy seat, which rendered the bowman useless for 200m and of course the opposing Trinity crew to start the weekend off with a […]

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.
