25 October – 2 November 2025
The Australian Indoor Rowing Championships return this October in a reimagined format designed for maximum flexibility and national reach. AIRC25 will run across nine days, allowing schools, clubs, workplaces, and individuals to participate at a time that suits them, removing the pressure of a single race day.
This hybrid structure makes it easier than ever to get involved, whether you're joining remotely or competing as part of a local hub.
Two Ways to Participate
Virtual (Anywhere via Row Nation)
Participants can complete events on any Concept2 RowErg and log results via the Row Nation app.
In-Person Hubs (ErgRace Desktop)
Organisations can run in-person race experiences using ErgRace Desktop. Suitable for clubs, schools, gyms, and community venues, including closed settings such as defence or corporate wellness programs.
All results feed into the same national leaderboards. Virtual and in-person participants compete on equal terms.
Event Categories
Leaderboards will be available by event, region, and club, with digital badges and milestone recognition automatically unlocked. Shareable performance graphics and completion certificates will be generated at upload.
Unlimited Attempts. More Chances to Compete.
Participants can submit as many results as they like during the event window, no limit on attempts. Whether you're chasing a PB, testing your pacing, or racing with friends, every row counts. Only your best result will be ranked on the national leaderboard.
Expressions of Interest Now Open
We are seeking expressions of interest from clubs, schools, gyms, universities, defence bases, and workplace wellness groups to run in-person AIRC25 hubs.
All hubs will receive access to the official event toolkit, including ErgRace setup support and guidance on running a successful race-day experience.
Mark your calendars. Prepare your hub. This is AIRC25.
Row anywhere. Race together.
