We were honoured to welcome some of rowing’s titans to Leander Club recently for a celebration of Jürgen Gröbler’s unparalleled success as he retires from the sport.
Over a career spanning nearly five decades, Jürgen coached crews to medals at 10 Olympic Games and led the GB Rowing Team to eight gold medal victories across seven consecutive Olympics. His transformational leadership shaped generations of athletes and established Great Britain as a dominant force in world rowing. Leander Club is widely credited with bringing Jürgen to the UK.
We were thrilled to be chosen as the venue for this prestigious dinner, which saw representatives from across the country’s top clubs come together for a very special evening.
