Rowing Ireland is delighted to welcome expressions of interest from clubs to run a Women on the Water programme in Spring 2025. Women on the Water has been a highly popular and successful initiative over the last few years, and we are excited to expand club participation this year.
This program aims to introduce adult women from across the country to learn to row at a recreational level. Clubs will receive support from Rowing Ireland to provide 6-8 week learn-to-row programs for female adult beginners.
Support from Rowing Ireland includes:
• Sign-ups and advertising for the programme
• Funding for delivery of the programme
• Linking clubs with trained coaches if necessary, to deliver the program.
Feedback from past participating clubs noted that this program increased club membership, maximised club equipment usage, created opportunities for beginner coaches, and established a new revenue stream.
Once Clubs fill out their expression of interest, we will be in touch shortly afterwards about setting up the program. For further inquiries, contact womeninsport@rowingireland.ie.
