Club Information Pack 23rd / 24th August 2019 National Rowing Centre, Farran, Cork, Ireland CLUB INFORMATION PACK HOSTED BY WHITEGATE ROWING CLUB Whitegate, Co. Cork. Welcome Notes On behalf of Rowing Ireland I would like to extend a very warm welcome to the rowers, coxes, coaches, parents and their friends to the 2019 Irish Coastal Rowing Championships which are being held in the National Rowing Centre in August. This is the second occasion on which the event will be held in the National Rowing Centre and is a reflection on the excellent event which took place there in 2018 on the coastal course, adjacent to the Olympic course. Now that coastal rowing is an #integrated part of the Rowing Ireland family, it is wonderful to see it utilising the facilities at our headquarters in the National Rowing Centre. It is however important for the development of the sport that the championships move around the country and in 2020 they will be held in Donegal. In addition to the small army of volunteers without which an event of this nature could not take place, I would like to specifically thank two other groups. The first is the Coastal Champi- onship Committee which met monthly since December to ensure the Championships are well organised and run to a high standard. The second is the host club which this year is Whitegate Rowing Club. As the “feet on the ground” at the National Rowing Centre, Whitegate are leaving no stone unturned in making all the necessary arrangements including liaising with a large number of bodies such as Coillte, the Gardai and the ESB. We look forward to seeing you and your club in the National Rowing Centre in August for another wonderful celebration of coastal rowing at its best. Kieran Kerr Chairperson Rowing Ireland Coastal Division Rowing Ireland Coastal Championships Committee Chairpersons' Welcome On behalf of the Rowing Ireland championship organizing committee and the Whitegate rowing club committee, members, and supporters I bid you welcome to the National Rowing Centre for the 2019 Rowing Ireland coastal championships. Just a short year has passed since a very well organized Rushbrooke event and with Whitegate rowing club now taking the torch the Championships' will be a step up again in making this weekend an enjoyable and successful, safe, rowing regatta. Hosting major Rowing Championships' is not new to Whitegate Rowing Club but we thank them for accepting the honour of hosting this years major event on the Coastal Rowing Community calendar the continued support of their sponsors members, friends, and those attending are vital to our sport. As always we are thankful for the use of the facilities and thank all staff at the National Rowing Centre, ESB, Coillte, Gardai, and Safety Personnel and the volunteers that help in the smooth running of the Championships' . To all participant oars people racing at our Irish Champi- onships' on behalf of all concerned we wish you and your clubs the best in your pursuit of honours for the week end Eddie Farr Chairperson Rowing Ireland Coastal Division Championships Committee Host Club Coastal Chairpersons' Welcome On behalf of Whitegate Rowing Club, I am honoured to be extending a very warm East Cork welcome to the whole Coastal Rowing Community in Ireland to the 2019 Irish Coastal Rowing Championship, hosted by our club on August 23rd and 24th at the National Rowing Centre, Farran in Cork. It is with both pride and pleasure that we, Whitegate Rowing Club, are hosting the 2019 event back in Irelands Home of Rowing in Cork. We have a lot to live up to after the wonderful event of 2018, hosted by one of our neighbouring clubs, Rushbrooke R.C. who have been a great help and support to us this year. We will endeavour to make the 2019 event as big a success if not bigger and more memorable. A huge thanks to the National Rowing Centre for allowing us the use of their fantastic facilities this year and for being so welcoming. In addition, I would like to sincerely thank the Rowing Ireland Coastal Division, as well as this year's Championship Committee, who meet regularly to ensure everything is on plan for a superb 2019 event. We look forward to welcoming you and your clubs to the National Rowing Centre in August.
