The other members are more recreational rowers, but also have the opportunity to compete in a competitive environment. During the season they can participate in competitions almost every weekend.

History

Proteus-Eretes is a result of a fusion between two student rowing clubs, VRV Proteus and DSR Eretes. VRV (Virgilius Roei Vereniging) Proteus was founded in 1947 by Gerrit Athmer and was at first a rowing club only for members of Sanctus Virgilius. Other students were not granted membership of Proteus.

In 1966 DSR Eretes was founded as a student rowing club open to all students. DSR Eretes was growing at a very fast rate whereas Proteus was struggling to survive. Because of problems with Sanctus Virgilius and a shortage of new members, Proteus became an open rowing club in 1969. In 1970 a fusion with Eretes followed, forming DSR Proteus-Eretes.
