Adapting to local conditions has been taken a step further. For a new group of Somali rowers it means developing rowing far away from their East African homeland and growing it in Great Britain. Under the initiative of Duran Farah, the vice president of the Somalia National Olympic Committee, Head of International Relations, rowing is being introduced to young Somalis living in north London.Recently 30 young Somalis stepped into the new experience. Aged between 10 and 20 years, Farah says his aim is to start them at a young age.
