Rowing is a sport of endurance, strength, and finesse, a sport naturally suited to Galway where the river connects Lough Corrib with the sea. The earliest reference we have to competitive rowing on the Galway river is 1839. The first rowing club established here was the Corrib Rowing and Yachting Club in 1864 (149 years ago!) and as other clubs formed, rowing matches became more competitive. In 1868, Commercial Rowing Club was formed and the inter-club rivalry generated a lot of interest in the sport.

Galway Motor Club, organisers of the Galway International Rally, is delighted to announce that Safety Direct will be the title sponsor of the Galway International rally for the fourth consecutive year. The Galway-based safety equipment supplier began its association with the event in 2008 and the success of the rally encouraged them to return for the past three years.
