Australia’s FIRST-EVER Beach Sprint World Champion ‼️🇦🇺🩵

Bella Scammell of Sydney Rowing Club put on a show at the 2026 World Rowing Beach Sprint Finals, delivering an incredible performance to take out the Women’s Solo gold medal. Across just a few years, Bella has already become a Queen’s Cup winner, the inaugural Sprint Eliminator champion, a NSW and National Champion, and now Australia’s first-ever World Champion in this format 👏

In the Mixed Quad, Dan Johnston of Mosman Rowing Club and Catherine Khan of Sydney Rowing Club were coxed by Ryder Taylor of UTS Rowing Club to a bronze medal performance, Australia’s second consecutive year securing this strong result.

Mosman Rowing Club's Oscar Scheel-Gamborg joined Bella in the Mixed Double, where they went down in the Knockouts to eventual gold medallists Germany. The whole squad was supported by Beach Sprint Lead Coach Spencer Turrin.

Congratulations to our athletes from the entire NSW rowing community 🇦🇺🩵 We can’t wait to see you back in club colours at SIRC this season!

Rowing NSW is excited to announce a new partnership with Break Records, Even When You're Down (BREWYD), a human performance company dedicated to helping organisations and athletes perform at their best.

Every commercial program BREWYD runs directly funds elite athlete development. One of their athletes, Luke Willian, who competed in Triathlon at the Paris 2024 Olympics, has spoken openly about how their support kept him in the sport. Beach sprint rowing will be the second sport BREWYD backs, with an eight-week high-performance development program launching later this year, facilitated by World Champion, Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games coaches.

We're proud to be partnering with BREWYD, and we're looking forward to bringing our two worlds together for The Transferable Laws of Excellence - a High Performance in Business Event, set for Friday 13 November at the Four Seasons Hotel Sydney.

5️⃣0️⃣ NSW athletes represented in 2026 Australian teams – more than double any other state or territory.

With Rowing Australia confirming US-based U23 Australian representatives this week, the numbers are in and they paint an incredible statistical picture. Multiple Junior Pathway Team alumni, State and National Champions, Sprint Eliminator stars – these athletes hail from right across NSW, and our entire community is so proud of them. Some have already delivered golden performances, and we wish them all every success as the international racing season rolls on. Their achievements demonstrate the strength of the development environment in NSW at the school and club level.

Thanks to our amazing coaches, volunteers, families, supporters and sponsors for helping to grow rowing in NSW and making this possible.
