2023 World Rowing Coastal Championships & Beach Sprint Finals go to Barletta, Italy
Recently, the World Rowing Council was asked to vote on the attribution of the 2023 World Rowing Coastal Championships & Beach Sprint Finals. Originally attributed to Sabaudia, Italy, the event had to be reallocated due to unforeseen political changes in the city. World Rowing received various expressions of interest from a number of countries.
Following the recommendations of the Coastal Rowing Commission, led by its chair, Guin Batten, the Council reviewed a bid from Barletta, Italy, and unanimously decided to attribute the event to the Italian coastal city. The dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
