2023 Under 21 Trans Tasman Regattas
On the 6th April 2023 Rowing Australia announced as follows.
Rowing Australia is delighted to announce the Under 21 team to compete at the Lake Karapiro Regatta in New Zealand from July 27-29. For a second time, the Australian and New Zealand teams will also be joined by a team from Canada.
The Under 21 competition allows Rowing Australia to expose a new cohort of pathway athletes and coaches to international racing, membership of an Australian Rowing Team and a better understanding of the standards and expectations required.
The event provides invaluable high-level international competition and opportunities for athletes between the World Rowing Championships age categories of Under 19 and Under 23.
