Reading University Boat Club (RUBC) is the rowing club of the University of Reading, founded in 1892.

Its boathouse sits on the bank of the River Thames in Caversham, Reading, at the edge of an uninterrupted six-kilometre stretch of navigable water — making it a well-positioned access point to the Thames for competitive rowing.

The club has a particular focus on sculling and fields both heavyweight and lightweight squads at all levels, from beginners to former junior internationals.

Its fleet includes Olympic-standard racing shells covering every boat type, and a second on-site building serves as a dedicated ergo and fitness facility. RUBC competes at events including BUCS championships and Henley regattas.
