The Irish Rowing Championships are the highlight of the domestic rowing season. These events, which are both volunteer-led and volunteer delivered, require a large number of volunteers to deliver the high quality event that our athletes deserve. This year in particular we require additional help from our clubs.
To assist in the running of the event we are looking to recruit a number of volunteers. The details of the positions are set out below. Please consider supporting Rowing Ireland by volunteering.
