WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Beach Sprint Rowing

The racing format

There are 3 parts to a beach sprint race:

  • First the Solo rower or a member of the crew runs 10-50m down the beach to their boat, which is being held at the water’s edge by boat handlers.
  • Then they slalom out round two buoys over a 250m course, turn round a third buoy, and sprint row back to the beach.
  • Finally, the solo or a member of a crew jumps out of the boat before running up the beach to fit a buzzed in the sand at the finish.

The competition starts with time trials, from which boats are seeded to the side-by-side ‘last 16’ racing and then the ‘last 8’ quarter finals, semi finals and finals, which take place in a block of fast and furious racing.

The first World Rowing Beach Sprint Finals took place in 2019.

Beach Sprint rowing will be part of the programme at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles. There will be events for Men’s and Women’s solos and Mixed doubles.
