Following strong performances at the British Rowing Beach Sprint Championships, I’m confident we will see some solid performances on the beach in St. Andrews. The athletes are hoping for sunny weather, good waves and friendly competition with the emphasis on fun to enable them to perform at their very best.”

All racing takes place on Saturday, 20 August, at St Andrews, Scotland which is offering free admission to spectators, so why not go down and cheer on the rowers as they race for Home Nations glory?
