5th at the World Rowing Beach Sprints Finals 🇨🇳

It’s been such an honour to be able to represent Great Britain 🇬🇧 this season at both the World and European championships.

The journey this sport has taken me on has been truly something else, I’ve travelled all over the world to compete amongst the best of the best, met new and incredible people, and really come out of my shell not just as an athlete but also as a person.

But I think my favourite part of this whole experience has been spending time with my brother @callan_wallis who’s always been the one I’ve looked up to whether in rowing or every day life. I feel incredibly lucky and proud to have him as a coach, a brother and everything in between.

The racing out in China was incredible, large swell and a long run on the beach led to the most fun and exciting racing I’ve ever competed in. Unfortunately @louie.walker_rowing and I had some pretty costly mistakes in the first and second time trial making us the last to qualify for the quarter finals and seeded against the fastest in the time trial which saw us knocked out but we didn’t go down without a fight coming in only two seconds behind them putting us as the fastest loser from the quarter finals and also quicker then some of the medallists.

Poole rower Lexi Gill, 17, has been selected to represent Great Britain in the Beach Sprint at the Youth Olympics in Dakar after a £1,000 grant from our Lord-Lieutenant's Fund for Young & Talented aided her development by paying for vital equipment and travel.
"The grant provided me with the opportunity to not only train with equipment that enabled me to be my best, but also to be able to attend the competitions that were pivotal to my selection for the GB team," she said.

Team GB and Spain’s beach sprinters training side by side in Torrevieja. Real race pace, real learnings. Exactly the sort of head-to-head work that sharpens everyone before Worlds. Good to host that kind of session here in Torrevieja.

British beach sprints championships 2026 - 3rd in Junior Women's Singles and 4th in the Junior mixed double.

After a long weekend of racing, long drives and more waves than I can count, I'm so proud to have come away from the British Beach Sprint Championships with 3rd in Junior Women's Singles and 4th in Junior Mixed Doubles.

It was a tough few days battling the conditions, but that's what made it so memorable.

Massive thank you to everyone who supported me throughout the weekend, and especially to @allmarkone and @rorycruickshank for the amazing photos and videos that perfectly captured it all.

The 15 young athletes representing Great Britain at the Youth Olympics in Dakar have been announced at a special summit. The athletes got their official Team GB kits and got to meet Olympic triathlon champion Alistair Brownlee, who’ll be supporting them through the competition.

17-year-old Lexi Gill will make history alongside Louie Walker as Team GB’s first beach sprint athletes. The sport combines coastal rowing with sprinting along the beach and is being included in the Youth Olympics for the first time. It’s also set to make its Olympic debut at the 2028 LA Games. Lexi said:

Lexi: ”You look back and think about the year you’ve had and all the training and all of it worth it and all that hard work has just slotted into place and worked out.”

Business trip to Portugal 🇵🇹
JMix2x with @lexigill.rowing , Solid time trial put us at top 8 and straight through to last 16 racing where we were unfortunately knocked out by Spain in a very close race.
With a little bit of boat handling for the GB senior team to finish off the trip.
