In January 2023 Rowing Ireland announced the launch of the Club Culture Toolkit. This toolkit aims to assist clubs in achieving a thriving club culture and improve gender equality through a 12 step process.
This toolkit was designed through a process of research with the membership of Rowing Ireland via a survey of over 1150 members including junior rowers, masters rowers, senior rowers, coaches and committee members. The results at the time highlighted gaps between the genders in terms of perceptions and attitudes. Positive club culture and gender equality practices are essential for progressive Rowing Ireland clubs and the toolkit provides valuable support in achieving these.
We are now running an online refresher workshop, facilitated by Dave Denieffe on Thursday 20th March 2025 from 7-9pm.
This interactive workshop is for those who have been involved with implementing the Club Culture Toolkit as well as anyone who is interested in getting involved to help develop a positive culture in their rowing club.
