World Rowing Championships results 1993-2012

The first rowing World Championships were held in 1962 with women’s events and men’s lightweight events being added in 1974, lightweight women’s events in 1985 and adaptive rowing making its debut in 2003.

In Olympic and Paralympic years the Championships are merged with the Junior World Championships in the absence of the world’s top senior crews and only feature non-Olympic/Paralympic class events at senior level.
