Strand Bar, Rush, 29 February 2020

Save the date, get your team of four together and come on down to the Strand Bar for our leap year quiz night this February! Starting at 8.30pm.

There’ll be prizes for the trivia masters, as well as spot prizes and a raffle. 

It’s all in aid of our rowing club – to help us get our boats in top shape and back on the water in time for the 2020 season. We brought so much silverware back to Rush last year after a storming 2019 season and we’re looking to do the same again this year.

All support on the night will be hugely appreciated – and it’s going to be great craic too! Buy your tickets on the door (quick starts at 8.30pm!) or get them now at the link below.

TICKETS
Individual Tickets: €10 per person
ONLINE OFFER Team Tickets: €35 for a team of four (€40 on the night)
Buy your tickets online and be entered into a raffle to win a framed photo of the East Coast Clubs in action during the 2019 season!

You can see more about how we’re preparing for the 2020 season on our Facebook page and if you’re keen to give it a go yourself, why not come along to one of our upcoming Try Rowing sessions? We’d love to see you.

Rush Sailing Club, 19 September 2020

Push yourself and your crew to your limits on the Lambay Challenge. A demanding 19km open-sea row circumnavigating Lambay Island off the coast of North County Dublin.

This is an open water rowing experience unlike any other – a challenging, thrilling, rewarding row followed by an afternoon of celebrations and family fun at Rush Sailing Club.

Now in it’s third year, the Lambay Challenge is an all-inclusive row, open to traditional wooden working boats, currachs, skiffs, singles, gigs and longboats. From eight boats in its first year, in 2019 the event was fully sold out months in advance with over 30 boats at the starting line on the day. Crews from around Dublin and Ireland were joined by visiting boats from the US, UK, Netherlands and Denmark. 

Not for the faint of heart, the Lambay Challenge is at the heart of Fingal Rowing Club’s annual calendar of events. If you’d like to know more, please get in touch. Otherwise, book your crew’s place in the line-up now.

Winner: Club of the Year 2019

by

Here at Fingal Rowing Club, we were proud and delighted to be named CLUB OF THE YEAR 2019 at the Dublin People Awards in December 2019.

We were honoured to be shortlisted in this category alongside so many wonderful North Dublin clubs.

At Fingal Rowing Club, we are all about bringing people onto the water, challenging our members to push themselves inside the boats (and outside of them) and to have fun doing it. Although we are a young club, we have achieved a huge amount and this Award is a wonderful recognition of that. We do everything we can to make our community proud of us and we are very grateful for all the support we get. Here’s to another fantastic year in 2020!
