Disability Rowing

What's it all about?

Adaptive rowing is about removing barriers to participation in the sport for individuals with learning, physical and sensory impairments. There are a number of clubs that offer or are dedicated to adaptive rowing. The advances in the equipment available for adaptive athletes and the ever-increasing number of accessible rowing venues has meant that rowing is truly becoming a sport for all.

Adaptive Rowing was introduced into the summer Paralympic Games in 2008 in Beijing
