Waikato Dio Rowing Alumni

The Annual General Meeting of the Waikato Diocesan Rowing Club will be held in the SEC room at WDSG on Wednesday 7 August, 7pm. All members and interested individuals are welcome to attend. We look forward to seeing you there!

Remember the Annual Dio Rowing Auction? It’s been a tradition in the club for a long time! It’s a great way to raise funds to help with the costs of the upcoming season, there’s some fabulous items in the auction and raffles and the best part is…our Waikato Dio Rowing friends and family get to socialise! It’s always a fun night so, if you’d like to join in the fun…and support the club, there’s still time to book tickets. Better still, grab some of your old crew mates and get a table! Friday, May 17th 6pm at the Dio gym. Book tickets today! GO DIO! 💚🤍

Waikato Dio won two more medals on the final day at the Maadi regatta in Twizel 2024.
Our U16 4+ girls won silver 🥈 and our U15 8+ won bronze 🥉 What a fantastic week and a huge effort by all the girls in our Dio rowing squad…the Waikato Dio rowing legacy lives on 💚🤍

Great to see Dio get a bronze medal in the U16 8+ yesterday 🥉👏 and our U18 4+ get the gold medal and win the Dawn Cup 🥇🏆 at Maadi. The Dawn Cup has been won by Waikato Dio 3 times….were you in one of the crews or know someone that won it in 2015 or 2019?? Tag your crew mates from those years or better still share a photo 💚🤍

Waikato Dio have 10 crews in A finals and 2 in B finals at Maadi 2024. Great to see our Waikato Dio past rowers come back to support the girls! In the second pic we have our senior U18 2- Issy & Hannah rowing past on their way to the start line. GO DIO! 💚🤍💚🤍
