Mortlake Anglian & Alpha Boat Club (MAABC) is a rowing club based on the River Thames, close to Chiswick Bridge in Chiswick, West London and has produced multiple national champions.

Location

The MAABC boathouse is situated next door to the Quintin Boat Club, which is part of the University of Westminster Boathouse and is undergoing refurbishment, which will be finished in 2022.

History

Although established in 1984, it has much older roots, which feature a series of mergers from eight clubs. In 1877, the Mortlake Rowing Club was founded, and the following year, the Anglian Boat Club was founded; these two clubs merged in 1962 to form the Mortlake Anglian Boat Club.

Two clubs called the Bedford Park Rowing Club and the Barnes Bridge & District Rowing Club merged to form the Chiswick Rowing Club, and they later merged with the 1962 Mortlake Anglian Boat Club, becoming the Mortlake Anglian & Chiswick Boat Club. Finally, in 1984, the Alpha Women's Boat Club (formed in 1927) merged with the Mortlake Anglian & Chiswick Boat Club to become the Mortlake Anglian & Alpha Boat Club.
