What we do

Welsh Rowing is the National Governing Body for rowing (on rivers, the sea and indoors) in Wales. Welsh Rowing works with Sport Wales to raise the awareness of, and participation, in rowing within Wales, as well as aiming to develop athletes for GB squads. We run a GB Start centre out of our base in Cardiff and support talented rowers to achieve international representation. Welsh Rowing is self-governing for rowing in Wales, but values a close working relationship with Welsh Sea Rowing, Scottish Rowing and British Rowing.

Rowing for all

Rowing has something for everyone, whether you love the water or prefer to be indoors, and whatever your aspirations, level of ability and background.

Development

Welsh Rowing provides support to its clubs in variety of ways, including coach and volunteer education and funding advice. We also support the development of new clubs.

Performance

Welsh Rowing has a stable performance programme that has developed significantly, with a demonstrable record in the identification and development of rowers. The programme is rower centred in its philosophy and has produced rowers that have represented Great Britain at World and European championships across senior, para, under 23 and junior categories.
