Athletes from across the UK come to Leander with one ambition: race for Team GB. Powered by our members, events, sponsors and donors, we run a high‑performance pathway that delivers world‑class coaching, equipment, nutrition and medical support. At Paris 2024, Leander athletes brought home 21 Olympic and Paralympic medals. We’ve medalled at every Games since 1984 and continue to lead GB crews at European, World Cup and World Championship level – building oarsmanship, fellowship and champions.
