LIFFEY
DESCENT
1961
1963 1975
With the unprecedented conditions presented by the COVID-19 pandemic,
the 2020 Liffey Descent was very unfortunately cancelled. This decision
was made both for the safety of all participants and volunteers. We also
wanted to ensure that the race, when held, would provide the best racing
experience for all participants.
To make sure we all still get a taste of the Liffey Descent this year let’s look
back at the fantastic history of this race and why it is the highlight of the
Irish racing calendar every year.

Roger Greene
RIP
This year the paddlesport community also lost a
pioneer of our sport. Roger Greene, a member of
Dun Laoghaire Canoe Club, won the first three
Liffey Races 1960-62. Roger became a great
volunteer in the sport as well, helping to organise
the early Liffey Descent races.
Roger Greene passed away peacefully on the 17th
September. Our sympathies go out to Rogers
Family & Friends.
