The 12th Asian Rowing Indoor Championship took place at the Ambassador Hotel, Pattaya, Chonburi during 25-26 April 2015. 91 rowers from 12 national federations including China, Japan, Republic of Korea, the United Arab Emirates, Chinese Taipei, Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines, India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Thailand, actively took part in this year’s indoor championship.
The Vice President of Asian Rowing Federation, Mr. Nicholas gave the opening speech to all athletes on the first day of ARIC this year. And on behalf of ARF, the Executive Director, Ms. Yin Zhang gave a delicate shell model provided by our sponsor Kanghua Boat Company, to Admiral Chainrong CHAROENRUK as a thank-you gift for the excellent host work by the Rowing and Canoeing Association of Thailand (R.C.A.T.).
Another point worth noticing is that this year, the amount of competition events increased to ten, which means we introduced four more new events compared to the six routine events of former ARF annual indoor rowing championships. We hope that with the introduction of new indoor rowing events, more rowers from Asia can participate at ARIC in the coming year.
