In-form Irish rowing team seek first Coupe de la Jeunesse success
The Coupe is rowed over 2000m and competed for by 13 European countries; Ireland, Great Britain, Italy, France, Belgium, Spain, Netherlands, Hungary, Austria, Portugal, Poland, Czech Republic, and Switzerland. The event has only ever been won by Great Britain (12 wins), Italy (11 wins), and France (eight wins), which is something the Irish representation is hoping to change this year and next, as this is another international event of which Ireland is host nation in 2018.
Ireland previously hosted the event in 2008.
