Her Outdoors Week is an inspiring annual initiative by Sport Ireland, held each August, designed to empower and encourage women to embrace outdoor activities. Rowing stands out as a fantastic lifelong sport, offering a unique way to explore and enjoy Ireland\u2019s beautiful lakes, rivers, and waterways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, we\u2019re thrilled to report that nearly 200 women across the country experienced rowing for the first time during Her Outdoors Week (August 11th-17th). This achievement highlights the remarkable efforts of our dedicated volunteers and the generous support from clubs nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Events were successfully hosted in Limerick, Cork, Galway, Kerry and Wicklow, showcasing the widespread enthusiasm for this initiative. Below, you\u2019ll find more details and a selection of snapshot photos from these events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this possible, including our volunteer coaches, local sports partnerships, and host clubs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A huge thank you to our coaches and coordinators in Get Going Get Rowing for facilitating many of the sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
