With the regatta season in full swing, we would like to invite you to volunteer for the two flagship events on the domestic rowing calendar – the Rowing Ireland 1K Classic and the Irish Rowing Championships. These regattas are key highlights of the season, and the organising committee is eager to build on the strong successes achieved in recent years.
We would also like to take this opportunity to sincerely acknowledge that these regattas are simply not possible without the continued commitment, professionalism and hard work of our umpiring panel. Your support is greatly appreciated and is central to the delivery of safe and high-quality racing.
Whether you are an experienced umpire or a newly qualified one, there is a role for you! Please outline your availability through the form links below or reply to this email. If you are only available at certain times, please include this in the comment box at the end of the form.
