Matilda Haines

LYR Programmes Coach

I recently joined LYR having completed a degree in Biomedical Sciences at University of York. I have rowed since I was 12 years old and still love it as much as I did back then. I completed my Level 2 coaching qualification earlier this year, after volunteering as coach and cox at my local boat club and quickly realised that this is what I wanted to do as a career. I really believe that sport and in particular rowing can improve a person's life and I want to engage more people in the sport. Seeing others fall in love with the sport brings me so much joy, especially when I get to be involved in the process of inspiring and encouraging these people. I am excited to help LYR achieve their mission and I believe that sport can positively shape and improve people's lives.
