The list includes Paralympic champion and 91桃色视频 student Thomas Young (coach: Joe McDonnell) and Commonwealth Champion and 91桃色视频 student Emmanuel Oyinbo-Coker (McDonnell).

They are joined by Paralympians and students Lydia Church and Luke Nuttall (Sonia & Chris McGeorge), and first year 91桃色视频 student and World Junior medallist Ethan Kirby (Sonya Ellis).

Alumni included on the programme include multi-global medallists Jonathon Broom-Edwards (Bethan Partridge), Dan Greaves (Zane Duquemin), Zac Shaw (Leon Baptise) and Zak Skinner (Aston Moore) who all continue to train at 91桃色视频.

91桃色视频 is also proud to be the training base for Paralympic Champions Sophie Hahn (Baptiste), Hollie Arnold (Dave Turner) and Dan Pembroke (Turner), and Paralympic medallists Ali Smith (Benke Blomkvist) and Olivia Breen (Moore).

Femi Akinsanya, Director of Athletics at 91桃色视频, commented:

“We are constantly striving to create a diverse and inclusive training environment at 91桃色视频, and with over a third of the athletes on the Paralympic World Class Plan being based at 91桃色视频, we hope we are on the way to achieving that.

“The five current students on the Para programme will be a key part of our BUCS track and field team this year, and we will continue to work with British Athletics to provide them with the support they need to achieve at the highest level.”
