Welcome to HIRR 2025, hosted by !
Last week, all four home nations and hundreds of supporters descended on Dorney Lake for the Home International Rowing Regatta, and an epic annual clash of top-tier rowing talent. Held this year at the purpose-built 2012 olympic rowing venue, the atmosphere within this incredible sporting amphitheatre was electric throughout.
Preparations were long in the making, and no quarter was given as the Welsh squad headed out onto the water. Many well-known faces were joined by a contingent of fresh blood who had earned the right to represent their country for the first time at this level.
With many looking across the horizon towards Los Angeles, individual and group performances from the Welsh athletes never failed to deliver. Relentless pace, stamina and willpower was on show throughout, loudly celebrated by our loyal and vocal supporters from the towpath, and bringing home an impressive haul of medals. Da iawn Cymru!
