About Sibby:

When, where and why did you start rowing? And what do you love about the sport?

Started as a fresher to force myself to spend some time elsewhere than the pub and sleeping in all day.

What was your first rowing club and coach?

Pembroke college boat club with Simon Kerswell-Jensen and Harry Lyons

What sport did you prioritise growing up?

I was a swimmer in secondary school, but most of the â€�sport’ I did growing up was with my dad, who jumped at any opportunity to do something mildly adventurous, whether that was abseiling down our house, building our own canoe, or climbing up mountains in the freezing cold.

What is your dream job? Or what do you aspire to do once you complete your studies?

Minister of Education for the Netherlands
