High Winds Force Postponement at Irish Rowing Championships

15th July 2017

#Rowing: High winds forced the suspension or rowing for the rest of Saturday at the Irish Rowing Championships. The organisers stopped the action on the water in the afternoon and set to redesigning the programme so that key races set for the rest of Saturday will be held on Sunday. Finals of important events such as the women’s senior pair and senior single and the men’s novice eight are set to be held before eight o’clock on Sunday.
