World Rowing Coastal Championships hit the water in Sidney

CHEK

WATCH: With roughly 400 participants from over 20 countries, the 2018 World Rowing Coastal Championships got underway in Sidney Thursday afternoon.

Coastal Rowing is a growing discipline that is already big in Europe, but this marks the first time the sport has made an appearance in North America. Organizers are hoping the sport continues to grow globally, with the ultimate goal of the sport one day being featured in the Olympics.
