Isabel Evans raced in a Team GB vest for the first time in 2023 at the European Games in Krakow. Her ninth-place finish in the women's C1 200m represented a personal best.
She is no stranger to international competition though, having teamed up with Katie Reid in the C2 200m and placed sixth at the multi-sport European Championships in Munich.
Evans was introduced to British Canoeing in 2017 through UK Sport's Discover Your Power talent identification programme. Prior to canoeing, Evans participated in combat sports, chiefly boxing and taekwondo.
She graduated from Durham University in 2019 with a first class honours degree in sport, exercise and physical activity.
