A junior’s visit to one of the 2008 GLRF regatta booths has resulted in the first registration from Mexico. The rower asked if they could join, after seeing that Mexico was not on the booth’s posterboard display of GLRF worldwide communities. The rower, from Mexico City, marks the fulfillment of GLRF representation in the North American continent. Mexico now becomes the 27th country in the GLRF worldwide community.
Although most rowing is concentrated in and around Mexico City, there are numerous rowing clubs in the Yucatan Peninsula as well as some clubs in the north and east parts of the country. Mexico recently distinguished itself by winning Henley gold at the 2008 Royal Canadian Henley in the Senior B Men’s Pair with a time of 06:32:03 and the Junior B Women’s Single with a time of 08:10:35.
