- Between 1901 and 1912 Veirman won four gold and three silver medals in various events at European championships.
- He was assured another medal at the 1913 European Rowing Championships as of the four single scull finalists, Giuseppe Sinigaglia and Anatol Peresselenzeff were disqualified.
- Competing against only one other rower, Veirman capsized and Friedrich Graf was the only one to reach the finish line.
