Scottish Rowing is delighted to announce the shortlist for the Scottish Rowing Awards 2017. The shortlisting panel had a tough job narrowing down the nominations this year with so many strong candidates across all the awards.

We invite you to join us at the Scottish Rowing Dinner at the sportscotland National Sports Training Centre in Largs on the 20th January for an evening celebrating the many successes in our sport in 2016-17. Pride of Britian Award winner Fraser Johnston will be our guest speaker for the evening and we will be joined by a special guest, Dame Katherine Grainger, multiple Olympic medal winner and now Chair UK Sport who will join our other guests in a light hearted panel discussion during the evening.  

The dinner and awards will be followed by a ceilidh, with the dancing led by local band, Clamjamfrie. Bookings for this event close on Thursday 11th January - Booking details below.
