The Welsh Boat Race〔 〕 , also known as the Welsh University Boat Race and The Welsh Varsity Boat Race, is an annual rowing race in Wales between the Swansea University Rowing Club and the Cardiff University Boat Club, rowed between competing eights each spring on the River Tawe or River Taff in South Wales. The Welsh Boat Race started in 2006 with just a senior men's and women's event and as popularity grew for the event and particularly the Swansea University Rowing Club grew in numbers (having been recently reinstated), a 'Freshers' event was added for both men and women in their first year of rowing.〔 〕 The race has been popular with students from both universities and parents of members, and has been held on a Wednesday, to complement the Welsh Varsity event and continued this way until 2009. However, due to increasing popularity from Alumni, parents and the general public, The Welsh Boat Race was later moved to a weekend date to enable more people to attend. The 2010 Welsh Boat Race was held on the River Tawe, in Swansea on Saturday 24 April. The aim was to alternate the venue between the two university rivers, but with superior facilities in Cardiff, it has been the venue of choice since. ==Winners== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Welsh Boat Race」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
