EVENT: Women's Lightweight Double Sculls
Paris will be Jackie Kiddle's first Olympic Games. She qualified the boat for the Tokyo Games but had to withdraw after her doubles partner pulled out.
Kiddle has formed an impressive combination with international newcomer Shannon Cox for Paris. The crew competed at the World Championships in 2023, finishing in fifth place. They won a silver medal at the World Cup II regatta in Lucerne, Switzerland, in May 2024.
Kiddle was a world champion in the Women's Lightweight Double Sculls in 2019 and a silver medalist in 2017.
Outside of rowing, Kiddle has completed a BSc in Animal Behaviour and an MSc (Research) in Ecology and Biodiversity from the University of Waikato.
