Scott Durant
At the 2011 European Rowing Championships in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, Scott raced in the men's four with Mason Durant, Fred Gill and Matthew Tarrant, finishing 7th.
In 2010 Scott represented the GB Rowing Team at the World Rowing U23 Championships in Brest, Belarus where he won bronze in the men’s eight. A month later he became World University Rowing Champion in the same discipline.
Scott started rowing at Lancaster Royal Grammar School aged 15 because he liked the look of it and was not very good at rugby. He won his first international vest as a junior at the 2006 Coupe de la Jeunesse, taking gold in the men’s coxed four.
In 2008 he competed for GB at the World Rowing U23 Championships in Brandenburg, taking 5th place in the men’s eight. The following year in Racice he was 11th in the men’s four, a month after he won the Prince Albert Challenge cup for his university at Henley Royal Regatta.
Scott graduated from Oxford Brookes University with an undergraduate degree in Town Planning and is currently studying for an MSc in Spatial Planning. At some stage he hopes to become a property developer. Outside of rowing, Scott enjoys cycling, football and sampling a variety of teas.
