About Madison

Ms. Mailey joined the Canadian national team programme in 2017, competing in the eight at the World Rowing U23 Championships, where she would win back-to-back gold medals. After the second gold in 2018, she joined the senior team for the World Rowing Championships, helping the eight to come through the repechage to claim a silver medal.

At the 2019 World Championships and Olympic Qualification Regatta, she competed in the senior women's four and qualified that boat class for Canada for Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Unfortunately, the world was embracing a pandemic, and the postponement of the Olympics meant she would have to pivot. Madison embraced this change, maintaining her elite skills for an entire year with hopes to get once again selected for the new "2020ne" games. COVID allowed her a "bonus year" to get stronger, fitter and mentally more challenging. In June of 2021, she was named to the Canada's 2020 Olympic Roster in the women's eight. That boat would go on to win the gold medal for Canada, the first in the event since 1992.
