Coach)
Ben Hunt-Davis inspires all who meet him with his real-life experiences
of becoming one of the world’s top rowers.
Ben became involved in rowing at school, and while studying Civil
Engineering at Oxford Polytechnic, he came second in the World
Under 23 Rowing Championships.
A few months later, he was selected to compete in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics as the youngest member of the British Rowing Team. He has been in the British team ever since and has now competed in three World Championships and three Olympic Games.
At the Sydney Olympics in 2000, Ben’s team, the Men’s 8, won the Gold in the Blue Ribband rowing event and became the first British team to do so since 1912. They were each awarded an MBE.
While
training for competitions, Ben also gained valuable experience
training Oxford University’s Women’s Rowing Clubs teams
for six years. Ben brings to his coaching an invaluable insight into
what it takes to perform at the top of your game, how to take a pro-active
approach to setbacks, and how to motivate yourself to achieve
your goals and help your team achieve theirs.
