Pakistan Indoor Rowing
The journey of rowing in Pakistan began through the tireless efforts, dedication, and vision of the “Mother of Rowing” Mrs U A Qureshi , whose passion played a pivotal role in introducing and developing the sport across the country. Her commitment laid the foundation for generations of Pakistani athletes and helped establish rowing as a recognized sport nationwide.
Following the same vision and pathway, Pakistan Indoor Rowing, an initiative of the Sindh Rowing Association (SRA), has been established to take rowing to the next level by making it accessible to people of all ages and fitness levels throughout Pakistan. SRA’s mission is to promote indoor rowing as a modern, low-impact, full-body fitness activity that improves health, builds endurance, and creates opportunities for competitive excellence.
Through training programs, community initiatives, local championships, and athlete development programs, SRA aims to grow the sport nationwide and inspire a healthier, fitter Pakistan.
This is only the beginning. InshaAllah, our long-term vision extends beyond rowing. We aspire to develop Pakistan into a hub for functional fitness and endurance sports, ultimately creating pathways that will allow us to introduce international fitness formats and events, including HYROX-style competitions, to Pakistan and elevate our athletes to the global stage.
SRA’s Vision
One Vision. One Movement. One Stronger Pakistan.
Row for Fitness. Row for Excellence. Row for Pakistan.
