Sir William Perkins's School Boat Club
Sir William Perkins's School Boat Club (SWPSBC) is a rowing club based on the River Thames at Sir William Perkins's School Boathouse, Thameside, Laleham, Surrey.

History
Sir William Perkins's School Boat Club was founded in 2003 by Liz Bernard, a teacher at the school, to introduce pupils to the sport of rowing. Originally operating out of Staines BC, a new boathouse was opened in 2016 as part of the school's Building Development Programme, and is owned by Sir William Perkins's School, with rowing being the major school sport. The boathouse is located next door to Burway Rowing Club.

Since its foundation in 2003, the club has won many national medals, enjoyed victories at Henley Women's Regatta, and has had crews racing at each edition of Henley Royal Regatta since 2018.  Since 2011, there has a growing list of SWPS international athletes, who have competed for both the Great Britain and England Rowing Teams at Under 16, Under 19 and Olympic level whilst representing the Boat Club.
