World Rowing U23 Championships is an international rowing regatta organized by the World Rowing Federation. Rowers can compete in U23 events until 31 December of the year in which they turn 22. The World Rowing U23 Championship is just under a week long and consists of a progression system to advance from heats to finals. The regatta has 22 boat classes, which includes the 8 lightweight boat classes.
History From 1976, the U23 event was organised as the Match des Séniors and from 1992 onwards as the Nations Cup, independently from FISA. In 2002, it became the World Rowing U23 Regatta, before becoming the Championships in 2005.
The 2026 championships were held in Duisburg, Germany, from 23 to 26 July. Greece topped the medal table with four gold and two silver medals, while the United States also won four gold medals.
