DSPC is a skiff and punt club based in Thames Ditton, Surrey in a lovely riverside setting,

Rowing in skiffs is a sociable and low cost sport, suited to all ages and abilities. A skiff is stable but fast and an ideal boat to learn to row.

Skiffing can be as competitive as you wish, from racing at the many regattas in the summer to just getting fit and having a gentle skiff or punt on the river.
There are different types of races- long distance or shorter sprint races. These are held at different skiff and punting clubs along the Thames, culminating in the annual Skiff Championships held on the Henley course.

We also offer punting which is a skilful and satisfying traditional Thames based activity. Punting is also raced at several regattas along the Thames in the summer months, with its own annual Punting Championships!

The club has a very active social calendar with all different types of events ranging from celebrating Burns Night to Christmas lunch with carols- all events are open to members.
We have a lovely club room with a well stocked bar and balcony overlooking the river.

If you are interested and want to know more please explore our website. If you want to come down to the Club and try out in a skiff or a punt go to the 'Contact Us' tab to drop us an email and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
Please note that skiffing is an all year round sport whereas we generally punt from May through to September.
