Dublin Port Company has hailed the return to the water of its neighbour rowing clubs St Patrick’s and Stella Maria with the easing of COVID-19 restrictions for under-18s partaking in sports.
“It is great to see, even in these challenging times, that our local Ringsend rowing clubs … can now make a start to the season safely together,” it said.
Learn more about the intertwined histories of the clubs in a video made by Dublin Port Company for its YouTube channel.
