a worldwide rowing community

 
 
Serving Gay and Lesbian Rowers
 

Why we exist

Our organization creates a worldwide connected community for gay and lesbian rowers, coxies, coaches, and judges. As an individual membership organization, we don’t have any chapters or clubs. Our members participate in all aspects of the rowing community through their respective rowing clubs and associations.

Creating community

We help bring individuals together through two main programs

  1. Our COMMUNITIES section focuses on different segments of rowing:
    1. masters
    2. women
    3. collegiate
    4. open/elite
    5. juniors
  2. Our COUNTRIES section creates community at a local and regional level.
    • we currently have members from 25 countries
Promotion, information and resource

We strive to contribute to the greater rowing community by:

  • promoting the sport in the gay and lesbian population
  • creating tools to foster participation and competition in the sport
  • encouraging clubs to develop an atmosphere of acceptance instead of just tolerance
  • providing support for those facing homophobia
  • profiling individuals who are contributing to the sport
  • presenting news and articles of interest for our members
