Welcome To NCR
A New Chapter for Rowing in Niagara has begun
With the launch of Niagara Community Rowing (NCR) on the renowned Welland Recreational Canal, a new era for rowing in the region is underway. NCR aims to become Niagara’s premier hub for youth and secondary school rowing, with expanded community programming set to launch in Summer 2026.
