National Association Of Amateur Oarsmen
The National Association of Amateur Oarsmen, organized in 1872, was the first national governing body of the sport of rowing in the United States, and the first American sports organization to publish a definition of "amateur". Before the NAAO, regattas across the country used different definitions of amateur, making it impossible to hold a national amateur championship regatta. The NAAO's first national championship regatta was held in 1873 on the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia. Beginning in 1916, the Julius H. Barnes Points Trophy was awarded to the club scoring the most points over the course of the championship regatta. In 1982, the NAAO was merged with the National Women's Rowing Association to form the United States Rowing Association. National Championship Regattas The following regattas were over one and one half miles (except the 1891 regatta in Washington, DC, which was one quarter mile) Additional reading Spalding Athletic Library Spalding Athletic Library sold s ...

At the apex of its activities, in the late 1980s and early 1990s, NAAO served as a catalyst and co-plaintiff on the Supreme Court case, National Endowment for the Arts v.
