History
The club was founded in 1863,[3] although the Nottingham Trent Rowing Club pre-existed the club.
The amateur status dates back to 1863. The boathouse sits next door to rival club Burton Leander Rowing Club.[4]
During May 1908 Trent BC coxswain John Plant drowned after being carried away by strong currents during a practice on the River Trent.[5]
The club won titles at the 2024 British Rowing Championships and at the 2025 British Rowing Club Championships.[6]
