Adele takes Bronze at the British Athletics Olympic Trials

It was great seeing past and present students competing at the weekend’s British Athletics Olympic Trials. The standout performance was from Adele Nicoll, taking bronze in the shot put and just 10cm under her personal best. Also big congratulation to Charlotte Wingfield on her selection for Malta in both the forthcoming European Championships and Olympic Games. Plus also great seeing alumni student Katy Sealy gaining Olympic selection for Belize, in the heptathlon.
