Limerick Boat Club

Limerick Boat Club, established in 1870, is one of the city’s oldest and most distinctive rowing institutions. Situated on the western side of Wellesley Pier beside Sarsfield Bridge, the club occupies a handsome Victorian red-brick clubhouse overlooking the River Shannon. As the second oldest rowing club in Limerick, it has played an important role in the city’s sporting and social life for generations. The club is particularly associated with recreational rowing, welcoming members who enjoy the river for exercise, companionship and leisure. Its historic setting and continuing community presence make it a familiar landmark on Limerick’s waterfront within the city.

Athlunkard Boat Club

Athlunkard Boat Club was founded in 1898, taking its name from its home beside O’Dwyer Bridge at the end of Athlunkard Street. By the 1930s, the club was already firmly woven into Limerick’s rowing tradition, with a proud record on the water. Its greatest distinction came through the Senior Eight Championship, which Athlunkard won twice, in 1913 and 1923. That achievement made it the only Limerick club to secure the title on two occasions. Its riverside presence and competitive success gave Athlunkard Boat Club a lasting place in the sporting history of the city and the wider Shannon rowing community.
