Irish Coastal Rowing Championships 2019 Last weekend was a fantastic one for Killorglin Rowing Club competing at the Irish Coastal Rowing Championships. The event organised by Rowing Ireland was held at the National Rowing Centre. With a total of 7 Killorglin crews competing, 5 of these returned home with medals. Current ISK students Laoise Murphy, Airida Mateviciute, Amy Kelly and Ava O’Malley rowed a great race and secured an All-Ireland bronze medal in the U14 girls category. Airida Mateviciute accompanied by former ISK students Mara Treacy & Anna Tyther along with Katie Boyle raced hard to win an impressive gold in in the U21 women’s race. Later in the day the same powerful Killorglin crew went on to win All Ireland gold in the U18 race. In the final race of the day, the Senior Ladies race, former ISK pupils Rhiannon O’Donoghue, Zoë Hyde, Anna Tyther along with Katie Boyle powered home to take yet another All Ireland gold A massively successful weekend all round for both past & current ISK pupils!
