About Us
The Pittsburgh Irish Rowing
Club (PIRC) is comprised of men and women who enjoy both the
cultural and competitive aspects of this sport. There are
no age restrictions for rowers and many fine rowers have started
rowing in their mid- to late teens or have "retired"
from rowing in their 60's.
In March the PIRC hosts
its annual fundraiser and participates in the St. Patrick's
Day Parade in Downtown Pittsburgh. PIRC has been featured
in a Gaelic Documentary as well as various articles in the
Pittsburgh
Post-Gazette. The St. Brendan's Cup Regatta is held annually
in July.
The PIRC encourages folks
who are interested in participating in this unique cultural
sport to spend some time watching and then give it a try.
The PIRC website is also availabe to those interested in becoming
sponsors. We look forward to seeing you at the docks and visit
our site often!
