Royal Canadian Henley Rowing Course
For more than a century, the best rowers in the world have raced across the waters of Martindale Pond, home of North America’s largest rowing regatta.
Rated as a world-class rowing course by the International Rowing Federation, the Royal Canadian Henley Rowing Course will host 14 men’s and women’s competitions during the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Games. The facility has previously hosted the 1970 and 1999 World Rowing Championships, as well as the prestigious annual Royal Canadian Henley Regatta since 1903. The regatta is regularly held in August.
For the Games, the Government of Canada and the City of St. Catharines are jointly funding the replacement of the main bridge linking the rowing facility to the mainland.
