As the governing body of this inspiring sport, our mission is to promote rowing as a pathway to personal growth, community development, and international sporting excellence. From the calm waters of Lake Victoria to the world stage, we are committed to nurturing athletes, empowering youth, and showcasing the spirit of resilience and teamwork that defines Ugandan rowers.

Here, you will discover inspiring stories, upcoming events, training opportunities, and the latest updates about our journey. Together with our partners and supporters, we are building a stronger future for rowing—one stroke at a time.

In addition to athlete development, the Federation conducts coaching and capacity-building workshops to empower trainers, referees, and officials with modern knowledge and techniques. We also focus on community outreach initiatives, using rowing as a tool to promote unity, health, and positive engagement for young Ugandans. Partnerships play a key role in our activities, as we collaborate with local and international organizations to access better facilities, training equipment, and exposure opportunities. Through all these activities, the Uganda Rowing Federation is steadily building a vibrant rowing culture, strengthening Uganda’s presence in global sports, and inspiring a new generation of athletes.

The Uganda Rowing Federation engages in a wide range of activities aimed at promoting, developing, and sustaining the sport of rowing across the country. Central to our work are training programs that equip athletes with the technical skills, discipline, and fitness needed to excel locally and internationally. We organize regattas and competitions at national, regional, and continental levels, giving rowers the chance to showcase their talent and represent Uganda on the global stage. At the grassroots, we run youth and school programs that introduce the sport to young people, creating pathways for future champions while inspiring teamwork and confidence.
