Home Countries International Regatta

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Home Countries International Regatta is a rowing regatta held every year for the countries of the British Isles - England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Events are held for both men and women at junior (under 18) and senior levels. The race has been held since 1966 and each country takes it in turns to host the event (although the event may actually take place on water outside that country).
