LEANDER ROWING CLUB (RSA)

ABOUT US

History

Leander was founded by ID Overbeck in 1881 to become the third rowing club operating in East London, alongside Buffalo Rowing and East London rowing club. All three clubs operated out of a shared facility at first creek on the Buffalo river, now the Princess Elizabeth dry dock. Leander took part in their first regatta in the same year, the now famous Buffalo Regatta which had by that time been going for 5 years. Leander very quickly recorded significant success in the major rowing events at that time, including winning the Grand Challenge event on numerous occasions.
