| - The Skiff Club is the oldest skiff and punting club in existence, having been founded in 1895. It is based on the River Thames in London, on the Middlesex bank between Teddington Lock and Kingston upon Thames. The Club supports two traditional water sports - skiffing and punting. Skiffs are traditional, stable wooden boats which are sculled with a pair of blades. The Club uses skiffs for racing at regattas run under the rules of the Skiff Racing Association, and for leisure outings such as Thames meanders. Punting is also carried out competitively at the same regattas as skiffing under the rules of the Thames Punting Club, having access to one of the few surviving Victorian punting ledges on the Surrey bank of the Thames. The Skiff Club colours are chocolate (bronze) and gold. The Club organises a club regatta at the beginning of September, and also hosts the skiffing mixed doubles marathon in May. The Club also co-hosts the Teddington Head with Walbrook Rowing Club. Over the years, club members have competed in rowing at international level. Members have also participated in long-distance rowing challenge events. The club provides support and coaching for all levels from beginner to advanced. The Club is co-located at Trowlock Island in Teddington with Walbrook Rowing Club, Royal Canoe Club and Kingston Royals Dragon Boat Racing Club. (en)
