Antonio Maurogiovanni is confident that the crews he sends to September’s World Rowing Championships in Belgrade can get the team back on the podium after drawing a blank at the Europeans.

Ireland sent ten crews to the continental event in Slovenia two months ago but failed to claim a medal at the event for the first time since 2015. Two boats finished fourth in ‘A’ finals, three came fifth and another two sixth.
