Template:Use dmy dates Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
Template:Infobox rowing club Neptune Rowing Club, founded in 1908, is located on the River Liffey at Islandbridge, Dublin. It is one of the largest clubs in Ireland.
The club is a member of the Dublin Metropolitan group of clubs which operates a boat house on the reservoir in Blessington - therefore the club's rowers train at both Islandbridge and Blessington. The Dublin Metropolitan Regatta is also hosted here each year.
Neptune has a strong history in competitive rowing - it has accumulated 152 National Championship titles since 1914, and has won a number of Henley Regatta events including the Diamond Sculls, Britannia 4, Ladies Plate 8, Thames Cup 8 and Prince of Wales 4x (composite with Commercial RC).
Victories at Henley Royal Regatta
In the 1996 Thames Cup final, Neptune beat Wallingford A.[1]
More recently Neptune had further success at Henley in the Henley Women's Regatta of 2010 with a convincing win for the Elite Pair, beating Oxford University by two lengths in the final.[2]
