About Rex Batt
Where did you learn to row and who was your first coach?
Canford School - William Moreland.
What inspires you about sport?
How it can lead you to do things you thought not possible of yourself.
Explain your earliest memory of The Boat Race
Watching it on TV as a kid.
Do you relish in hours in the gym and miles in the dark, or do you live for race days?
It’s a bit of both. You can’t survive this sport if you don’t find some joy in the training process, or you'll burn out. But the race is the reward.
What's the secret to managing elite-level sport with studying at one of the top universities in the world?
Ruthless time management and knowing the value of rest.
