Calling all rowERGs

Clubs, Schools, Gyms and Indoor Rowing Enthusiasts do you have the ERG to deliver a new and exciting indoor rowing initiative?

Rowing Australia is excited to announce the inaugural 2016 Australian Indoor Rowing Championships (AIRC) to be held across the month of November.

This is the chance for you as a Club, School or Gym to engage with your local community to host your own indoor rowing event, at any time during the month of November, that will form part of the Australian Indoor Rowing Championships.

Register as an official AIRC Event Centre and host an event in November and be supported by RA with an official marketing tool kit, a national advertising and promotional campaign and logistical and event guidance. RA will also consolidate all results and provide regular updates throughout the month to confirm who are the best indoor rowers in the country. Linking to AIRC social media will also be available to co-promote the event with your Centre.

Be one of the first 25 Event locations to register who get over 25 entrants and receive $750 from Rowing Australia for event support

There are multiple race categories with age divisions beginning from 12 years right through to 65 and over. Indoor para-rowing races can also be added if desired.

Races available:

• Men’s and Women’s Open and Lightweight 500m
• Men’s and Women’s Open and Lightweight 1000m
• Men’s and Women’s Open and Lightweight 2000m
• Men’s and Women’s Open and Lightweight 1 min rip
• Team Relay 4 x 500m (Team Mixed)

There will be prizes up for grabs as well as the opportunity to attend the 2017 C.R.A.S.H-B event in LA, for a world class posted time in the Open Heavyweight, Lightweight Men’s and Women’s 2000m.

We are also delighted to confirm that we have partnered with the Robert Connor Dawes Foundation (RCD Foundation) as our charity partner for the AIRC, so there are options to raise funds for the RCDF, while also running your event.
