IRWWF History
Over the past few years, Stuart England took on a Labour of Love Project, plotting our Federation History from its Birth to the present day. Stuart canvassed far and wide and has put together what can only be described as an outstanding record of our Sport and the people who made it what it is today.
At the 2020 AGM Stuart gave a presentation to the Meeting and later that evening, surrounded by guests from the early days to the present day, he expanded his presentation to an enthralled crowd.
What you see below is the end result to date, History is ever evolving and will be added to as we go forward into the future.
On behalf of The Federation, I would like to thank Stuart publicly and invite you all to read this Fantastic Journey in time.
