Nordiska Roddföreningen i Zürich grundades 1878 och är den enda samnordiska föreningen som överlevde unionsupplösningen 27 år senare. Föreningens fokus ligger på idrott – särskilt rodd – och festlig samvaro mellan nordbor i Schweiz.
På Mythenquai vid Zürich-sjöns södra strand ligger vårt vackra 100-åriga klubbhus. Vid sidan om rodden ägnar sig våra medlemmar åt att grilla, bada, eller bara koppla av från stadens stress i fin miljö. Vi hjälps åt att ordna fester med skandinavisk prägel året runt!
För att bli medlem krävs att man har fyllt 18 år och att man antingen talar ett skandinaviskt språk eller är medborgare i ett nordiskt land. Vi välkomnar nya medlemmar varje månad under vårt styrelsemöte. Föranmälan behövs inte. Närmare information om nästa styrelsemöte hittar du på www.nordiska.ch.

Indoor Rowing Champions at Nordiska
On Saturday January 28th Jani and Janne represented Nordiska at the Swiss Rowing Indoors, which for the first time since a few years again took place in the Sporthalle in Zug. It was nice to see so many erg enthusiasts in one place again. Both Jan and Janne participated in the Men's Master 40+ 2000 meter category. Jani came second with a great time of 6:27.4 and won an overall bronze medal! Janne managed to improve of his personal best with 0.2 seconds. Congratulations to both! On Saturday February 11th, five heroes from Nordiska set out to defend our colours in the Open Nordic Indoor rowing championship. They could participate remotely and decided to do so out of our nice club house. This was the first time Nordiska participated in this event and we were in fact one of the clubs with the most race starts. (In the men's 2000 m race, 3 out of 8 participants were from Nordiska.) Also in the medal tables we managed to impress: Jani bronze in 1000 m for men Rikke silver in 200 m for women Jani bronze in 200 m for men Towards the end of the day Joonas, Lennart, Jan and Jani participated in a 2000 m relay with changes every 500 meters. The 15 minute practice on how to swap rowers really paid off and they finished the race in second place! Unfortunately due to a weight-discriminating handicap system they were shifted downwards in the end result. The day ended with some stretching, sauna, shower and a very nice dinner where Sebastian had arranged the food and everyone joined in the cooking. Thank you everyone!
