It is an esoteric fact that the Zambezi Boat Club, founded in 1905, hosted the World Professional Sculling Championships in 1910. Following these intrepid oarsmen, the River Club, with Primary Sponsorship UK, has brought Men's and Ladies crews from Oxford, Cambridge, South African Universities, and Brown Alumni to compete 3 times on the river's 1910 course. Thus far 6 Olympic gold medalists and 4 silver medalists from Athens, Sydney and Beijing Games have competed on the Zambezi River, amongst the hippos!
