Frequently Asked Questions
Are rowing clubs classified under this Aquatic Sports category?
No. Rowing and sailing clubs sit under Water and Boat Sports because their sport is contested through a craft.
This subcategory groups teams and clubs fielding competitors in water sports where the athlete's own body is the means of propulsion, covering swimming clubs and water polo clubs. Rowing and sailing clubs are grouped instead under Water and Boat Sports, since their sport is contested through a craft rather than the body alone.
