Salary & Funding
As a rower for Team GB, much of Glover’s funding to support her training and the trip to France will come from the Athlete Performance Awards.
Aimed at covering the costs of the sport and living expenses while competing, rowing is one of the World Class Programme sports that’s given additional funding.
For the 2024 Olympic Games, Team GB has earmarked £23,794,482 for its rowing athletes. With 42 of them going to Paris, if all’s divvied up evenly, Glover would be looking at a share of £566,535.29 to go towards costs.
The APA is funded by the National Lottery, but Team GB also receives funding from other sponsors. Aldi will remain the team’s Official Supermarket sponsor, which is said to be a multi-million-pound deal.
How Much is Helen Glover Worth?
Information about the famed rower’s salary, funding, and other earnings isn’t public knowledge, but most estimates of Helen Glover’s net worth land in the region of £1 million to £1.3 million.
With a full slate of training under her belt since coming out of retirement to challenge in Paris, Glover will certainly have a chance to enhance her net worth and, possibly, take up some endorsements after a podium finish.
