Welcome
Welcome to the unofficial world rowing rankings. This is a ranking system based on performance of national rowing federations at international regattas.
The Olympic class events at the FISA Rowing World Cups, World Championships and Olympic games are all taken into account and ranking points are awarded to national federations according to finishing positions, the strength and size of the field and the type of event.
After a regatta points are calculated for each event and are then used to create several types of rankings.
For each regatta the points awarded to the national federations are added together to produce an overall, mens and women's regatta ranking. For example the rankings for the latest World Championships can be found here. Further events can be found on the calendar on the right hand side.
Individual events rankings are calculated at each regatta for each Olympic class event. Generally, these usually follow the positions in the World Championships, but not always as they are built up over a period of up to 18 months and are not based on just one performance.
Composite rankings (overall, men, women) are created, combining the totals of all events over the same period as for individual events.
Full details of the ranking calculations and types can be found in the about section.
