Siġġiewi Rowing Club is set to participate in the renowned Regata del Mediterraneo. The event will take place in the waters of the Strait, famous for the Fata Morgana phenomenon, and will bring together ten teams from Italy and abroad. Each crew will consist of four rowers and a coxswain, competing over a challenging 500-metre course.

Also competing are A.S.D. Associazione Mare Nostrum 2000 Civitavecchia, CUS Bari, and Città Metropolitana di R.C., alongside the Maltese team from Siġġiewi.
Participation in this prestigious event offers Siggiewi Rowing Club an important opportunity to showcase their skills and compete against some of the Mediterranean region’s top rowing squads. It also represents a significant step in strengthening sporting connections and fostering a spirit of friendly competition across borders.
