Ireland nominees have been named as finalists in three categories in the prestigious World Rowing Awards. This is a record number for Ireland at the end of an extraordinarily successful season. Sanita Puspure, who won gold at the World Championships in the single sculls, is one of just three finalists in the contest for the Women’s Crew of the Year. There are also awards for para-rowing crew of the year and for sustainability in rowing. The winners will be announced on Friday, November 23rd, at the World Rowing Awards dinner in Berlin.
