About the TBC
The Teifi Boating Club – known by all as the TBC- was started by a group of boating enthusiasts over thirty years ago. From a germ of an idea as long ago as 1964, the purchase of the site in 1973 and the official opening of the clubhouse in October of 1975 the club hasn’t looked back. The TBC caters for all aspects of boating activities:- Sailing Dinghies, Cruisers, Power Boats, Rowing, Windsurfing you name it we’ll welcome it. We have a full programme of both Boating and Social activities and are always happy to welcome new members.

Other interests at the TBC
Celtic Longboats.
Diving.
Angling.
Pool league.
Celtic Longboats – the club has a number of members whose interest is rowing – they own two Traditional Longboats and have regular training sessions with racing in the summer months.
If you are interested in having a go email:- richie jones or leave a message at the bar and they will be only to happy to invite you to one of their sessions. What a great way to get fit and stay in shape – far better than the static rowing machine in the gym.
Diving – not only on the water, but also under the water. The Cardigan Sub Aqua Club regularly uses the club facilities to assist them in the forays out into the nether regions of Cardigan Bay and afterwards in the bar. Many of the divers are TBC members and an open invitation is extended to members to ‘have a go’! You couldn’t get any wetter than some of our dinghy sailors!
Contact www.cardigansac.org for details.
The TBC Pool team meet on Tuesday evenings at the club house, have a full programme of games both home and away and are at present holders of the Cardigan League Champions trophy. Interested! Pop in on a Tuesday evening, but best to phone the bar first, in case they have an away match.

The TBC also has a long association with the Cardigan Branch of the R.N.L.I. and hosts and supports fund raising events for the Lifeboats.
