About the event
The Hilda Mitchell Cup is an event that has been raced on the tideway since 1921. Originally a competition between Quintin Boat Club and Ibis Boat Club, Putney Town Rowing Club joined the ranks of competition in 2014. Through the years, there have been many gaps in when the event was held, whether due to wars, political conflicts, the demise of Ibis RC, pandemics, or other inferences. The competition in 2016 was the last one until May 2025 when it was revived, and won by QBC.
We are very excited to continue the tradition of the Hilda Mitchell Cup this year as a friendly competition on the tideway between PTRC and our neighbours across the river, MAABC and QBC!
Racing times are TBC (will be confirmed in March/early April), followed by a BBQ on Mortlake's beach!
