Coached by Wendy Levash and Amelia Siani, the Dartmouth Women's Crew ranks among the most competitive college programs in the country. The team has the Connecticut River as its rowing venue. The stretch of more than 15 miles of rowable river is only used by Dartmouth crews, Hanover High School crews, and local scullers, so water time is not hard to schedule and traffic is minimal. Highlights of rowing on the Connecticut include frequent flat water and gorgeous leaves in the fall. Drawbacks include the late thawing of the ice in the spring and the challenge of avoiding icebergs during the first week back on the water. Women's rowing at Dartmouth was founded as a varsity sport in 1975. Over the past 30 years of rowing the team has graduated three rowers who went on to compete in the Olympics. This reputation has made for a very popular program. Each year the team avidly recruits inexperienced freshmen to walk on, welcoming them to make an impact on the team. These walk-ons make up more than half of the team while the rest are recruited women, totaling nearly 60 at the beginning of the fall. Through cuts and self-selection, the freshmen compete in two or more eights by the time spring season comes around. They are led by a large varsity team, generally made up of around 30 women.
The team puts in about 16 practice hours a week, consisting of long endurance building rows, short piece workouts, and weight training. While the fall and spring are spent on the water, the most important training of the year is done in the winter. Indoor facilities consist of over 30 ergs, an indoor rowing tank and Manley Weight Training Gym in the Dartmouth Athletic Center. The Friends of Dartmouth Rowing Boathouse boat bays are converted into winter training facilities. Here the team is able to practice on slide ergs on which trains of four erg together, practicing following as they erg. The Friends of Dartmouth Rowing Boathouse serves as the home for Dartmouth's Crew Teams, completed in 1985. As part of one of the most competitive college leagues in the nation, the EAWRC, the women set lofty goals each year in hopes of further program growth and success.

Men's Varsity Swim Team
The Dartmouth Rugby Football Club (or DRFC) was established in 1951 at Dartmouth College and has seen success ever since. The club has enjoyed success on a national stage. Dartmouth has reached the Final Four of the national collegiate championship three times since 1980 and narrowly lost in two championship games. Dartmouth first won the New England Championship in 1980 and has repeated numerous times. Dartmouth has also won the Ivy League cup 10 times since it was established in 1969.
The club dedicated its Corey Ford Rugby Clubhouse in September, 2005 with matches against Army (DRFC) and Radcliffe (DWRC). The Clubhouse was built into the hillside at the halfway line of Battle Field and Brophy Field, which are separated by a twenty-foot bank. Spectators view games from the deck of the Clubhouse and from the hillside that runs the length of the fields.
The team comprises more than 100 students and often fields more than four sides on a given weekend during the fall term. Most of the members of the club have never been in a rugby game prior to going to Dartmouth, and many have never seen a game.
One of the strengths and strongest traditions of the club are the Annual Tours. In 1962 DRFC toured in Ireland. In 1964 the team toured both Germany and Scotland. Recently the team has traveled to Ireland, Scotland, Wales, England, California, and Spain. See the official site here.
