It is with sadness that we report the death of Jim MacRitchie.  Jim MacRitchie made a huge contribution to the sport of rowing in Scotland over many years as an oarsman, an umpire and notably as a President of the Scottish Amateur Rowing Association.   He was still serving as a Scottish Rowing umpire in 2014, such was his love of the sport.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this time.

The funeral will take place on Wednesday 7th January at 2pm at Woodside Crematorium, Paisley PA1 2NP
