A bit of history
Since 1997, the year of its first edition, the Rowing Regatta has become a classic autumn appointment in Turin. The Turin 'CUS - Centro Universitario Sportivo' (University Sports Centre) decided to organise an event similar to the historic challenge between the prestigious English colleges of Cambridge and Oxford (which has been held on the waters of the Thames since the 19th century) to promote sports and a sense of belonging to the university community. The British rowing challenge inspired CUS Torino, which has embraced this tradition by allowing university student-athletes to enjoy competitive rowing in the Turin area.
